| Subject: | Re: Ammeter wavering theoretical solution |
Many years ago (I was still in Lancaster) I chased a wiggling ammeter needle for
weeks it seems. I tried a new master switch, checked the impedance, to the alternator-master-regulator,
cleaned the terminals on the regulator, replaced the
regulator, cleaned all the terminals on the alternator, replaced the alternator,
and considered just rewiring the whole thing. It turned out to be the ammeter
itself. Or, should I say, the connections on the ammeter.
I hate chasing down things like that.

might conjecture it would take less time to do that than it would to type this

Speaking for myself, the current latches don't seem so bad I'd look to repl
ace them. I only flip my back seats about once a year and find getting the
back cushions on/off to be the only annoying part of the job.

Well, all I can say is that after trying it on the one installation, it's an
awesome improvement over the latch thats in there. For $25 to 30 a set and a
bout 20 minutes installation, it makes a serious difference in convenience.
Sure, like most poorly conceived designs, there is always a work around. The
current latch is just one example.
