Default Electrical Problem

Dearest resto gang,

I have an electrical question for the group.

The electrical system on my Ford powered T-16 is 12 volt, negative ground, with the factory installed generator. When I ran the wires from the generator to the factory voltage regulator I did not polarize the unit.

How does one polarize a 12 volt generators voltage regulator?

My battey has been severely discharged over the whole ordeal - and will only store 12.40 volts after being on the charger all week - is it time to recycle it? It does not seem to want to hold a charge (but I have not hygrometer to check the electrolyte).

I have no load on the system - do I need to get the lights hooked up?

Thank you in advance for your recommendations,


Stewart
