John
thanks again and now I understand the diagram and can progress.


Ian
if that's the case it would make life a lot easier.
It is the original Dynamo from the bike which I had reconditioned. I told the firm in Sheffield who did the reconditioning what the rotation direction is.
So I guess there should be no reason to change it.

Have you experience of making the direct connections without internally changing the wires in the dynamo.

Hi John
Just one last question.
In diagram 2 it shows that the terminals D and F are connected together.
Does this not create a short  since the F is connected to the -ve field coil wire and the D is connected to the +be Dynamo brush and to the +ve field coil wire.

Thanks so much I would never have figured all this out.

Thanks for your comprehensive reply John

I think I understand but its still a bit muddy.
Am I correct in my own words as below

Connections inside the Dynamo
According to the first page I need to change the field coil connections by connecting the positive field connection to Terminal D
Terminal D should already have a connection to the positive brush
The other field coil wire (-ve) is moved to Terminal F
The negative brush is connected to the dynamo body

In Diagram 2
I presume therefore that the Dynamo when rotating will send a voltage to the Field Coil through the wire connecting Terminal D with Terminal F. If this is the case how is the charge being regulated?

I'm trying to replace my mechanical regulator with a Wassel 10221 neg earth regulator.
My bike is a 1939 James K8 250cc.
I just cannot fathom out the wiring instruction wondered if anyone can help me.
Ive attached the instructions.

On the first page the instructions tell you to disconnect the field coil wire marked 1 and move it to the D terminal. Then to disconnect wire marked 2 from the earth screw and connect it to the F terminal.
Am I right in assuming these are internal Dynamo wires (See page1)

Then on Page 2 Diagram 2 it shows the yellow wire connecting to D terminal which connects to positive in the Dynamo.
The green wire is shown connecting to F terminal and then connecting to the D terminal but connecting to anything on the Dynamo.
Then finally the diagram shows the negative in the Dynamo connecting to the black wire.

Can anybody help me untangle this.
Paul
