Welcome from Washington State, hope you enjoy the site. How did you check the voltage regulator? Did you perform the A/C check? :cheers:

Ok,

As a must, check THIS out :up:

Then, yes... check your electrics... click on the link at the bottom of my Signature Block or do a search...

Give us more specifics.... what steps have you taken already (trouble shooting wise) ?

:cheers:

Well, if the VR is bad and starter just clicks, it sounds like a flat battery. If the VR is bad why wouldn’t you replace it? Test if the battery is OK first. bad VR might have overcharged and boiled your battery. BTW do you have low beam working? Overcharging tends to blow the bulb…
