Thanks I have checked the points and cleaned them refitted them . Same problem 15v at 2500rpm. The points on the voltage regulator part of the control box open when the engine is running and stay open. Only close when engine is turned off. I thought when points open no volts generated? Have refitted old control box and no difference. I'm a bit lost on this one. During all this work it's started missing on one cylinder. Not a good day in the garage!

Hello, I have just had dynamo refurbished, new battery and new old stock control box fitted to my 1963 vitesse and also added a Smith's volt meter. On low revs it's fine but at normal driving speeds it's showing around 15 volts going into the red. Any ideas what I can do? Can you adjust the voltage on the control box? Any help would be great.

thank you.

can anyone help me I have a 1964 vitesse 1600. The voltmeter reads 14 to 18 volts on the run which must be too high. Have bought a new control box, but cant find the original one. I must be going mad but I cant see anything that looks like a lucas rb 340 I have just bought. Where should I find it? Any help or photos that show it in position would be a great help! Thanks Frank

thanks, I might look into the volt meter. Frank

I would like to wire in a ammeter to my Vitesse but have been told numerous ways to wire it in that make no sense to me. I don't want to blow the smiths ammeter. Can anyone help? I know one lead needs to connect to the battery but where does the second lead coonect to the dynamo. Any help would be great. Thanks Frank
