Ok, I'm all cornfused now. The switch on the panel cuts off power to the "arm"
lead on the voltage regulator- I know that. It doesn't appear that the switch on
the master (in luggage compartment) cuts out the field though since it is always
grounded no matter what position the switch is in. I would imagine that if it cut
the ground to the field then it would be ungrounded when the swith was off, right??
In any event I still can't figure out why my generator isn't charging. 1. Generator works
off the plane 2) field has been flashed correctly (gen works off plane) 3. voltage regulator
works off the plane according to the shop I took it in to
What else to check? This thing is driving me crazy!
Thanks.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ that other wire is your generator field wire. Sounds like you now have 2 generator switches- the question is are they both wired to the generator field?? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
These wires cut off the generators F-lead which goes to the regulator. So it's basically taking the sources of electricity off when you take out the master ( this is handy in cases of electrical fires and the like )
