UPDATE: new voltage regulator is in and it appears that everything is back to normal.
Only took me an hour and that’s because I had to thread two screws in blind. And one of those screws took me a full half hour to line up and screw in. Ugh.
In the pictures you can see the dramatic difference between the old VR and the new. The new one has two “brushes” standing straight and tall. The old one only has one brush in good condition, while the other is 100 percent worn out!
These machines constantly amaze me.
We’ll be back on the road tomorrow!
