how to repair a voltage rectifier regulator charging system

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video, I probably demonstrate a method to troubleshoot and repair a 12 volt charging system's voltage rectifier regulator. Many cars, trucks and motorcycles have them and they are easy to fix if you can find rectifier shims and micro collider rings.

    As a professional electronics tech… I literally sat here dumbfounded for the first 60 seconds of the video. I had NO IDEA this was satire and honestly Got confused, and that weird dizzy feeling like I’m in a dream or something. i’m constantly hearing crazy off-the-wall shit and advice from inexperienced folks on the Internet… especially in regards to circuit troubleshooting. But your delivery was so bland and dead pan… I was just kind of blown away to the point of questioning my own electronics knowledge for a second 😂 like a really bad case of déjà vu or feeling like you just walked into the twilight zone!!! Damn some of your videos are hilarious but I honestly wonder how many folks have completely fucked up their shit because they had no idea it was satire 😂 this is comedy gold

    Surprised you did not check the smoke capsule inside the rectifier unit. If anything goes wrong the rectifier ruptures it to signal to the user it has failed. Some have a scent not unlike burning wood added to give a visual and sensory failure warning. After overhauling the rectifier it is important to replace the smoke capsule to reset the failure warning system. I keep a stock of spare smoke capsules in my shop as seem to need a lot of them when working on older bikes.

    I think you got this wrong. As far as I know, the actual cause of electronics breaking is when the smoke leaks out. That's why I always make sure that my electronic devices are properly sealed. Unfortunately lots of electronic equipment have big holes in them. I suspect it is part of the "planned obsolescence" that most manufacturers deal with in order to sell more product. They intentionally let the smoke out. Shame on them!
