I wanted to update this as my last solution did not last, I found that if the battery discharged a bit the strobing would go away but the excitor connections were not the culprit. In the end it was the main battery cable to the 12v buss bar. While it tested fine and looked fine, my electrical...

I was able to resolve this issue and it was quite simple. I had replaced the 2 pin connectors for each voltage regulator as mine were fairly corroded and cleaning didn't get me very far. In the rebuild kit from ASP Wholesale was a foam gasket square that inserts into the voltage regulator...

Thanks, I have an NOS Stanadyne assembly so I will try swapping that and see if that solves the wiper motor issue and check my wiring while I am at it. I'll probably get flamed for not doing a spin on but I honestly like the Stanadyne unit. Ugh, that will be the 3rd time I've rebuilt my alts...

I removed my capacitor set between the 24v buss bars, no dice. The issue has gotten worse so even on short drives at low speed the gen lights come on. I do have another puzzle piece. Turning on the heater blower stops this problem. If it is on either of the lowest two speeds the gen 1 light...

I have one hunch I am going to try, that little group of 3 capacitors on the fire wall between the hot and ground. I am kind of stickler for keeping things right and at least reversible so I made a new one myself from the proper capacitors. I am going to try removing it. I can say that this...

I should clarify this is an m1009. The speed is plausible I suppose as it would be rpm related but on this particular drive I had a full mix of county and farm to market roads with 55 mph speed limits and a short highway run at 75 and I had about 2 miles off road. The gen lights do seem to be...

Searching this topic I find a few threads, but none post a resolution. alts were both rebuilt with asp wholesale kits and hardware kits after my starter/wiring meltdown I have another thread about. Fusible links and all main cables were replaced, fuse block, grounds, terminal blocks were all...
