Are any of us here REAL familiar with brushless capacitor excited generators? I am working on an old 2 pole one that the rotor diodes failed. Easy enough to source and replace..... Here is the problem, I am finding conflicting wiring diagrams for the polarity of the diodes. The mfg of the genset (long out of business) shows them going in opposing directions, and a manual for the alternator shows them going the same direction.
Anyone here any experience with this stuff? Trying to get it running before the better half has me scrap it (she wants the patio back, I guess...)
