Emergency Kludge/Test for Kramer
If your filament was to expire while on the road you could kludge it back to charging by cutting the stator lead to the voltage regulator and jumping it to any 12v power source, no? Kramer can check his system by cutting the wire headed to the idiot light, cutting the lead to the stator on the VR and jumping that to a 12v source like this. The ammeter gauge should then show a proper charge, right? And he would know for sure that his idiot light was the culprit without having to pull it out and test it.
