On John Hervey's suggestion I pulled the instrument panel and replaced my battery instrument light. This caused the charging to indicte positive on the ammeter. The light now comes on when I turn the ignition and goes out properly. Before I was not getting a charge because the light was defective. Now, I am having the same symptoms and am hearing a clicking sound from the front area and the ammeter is showing voltage drops. What is going on now? Any help greatly appreciated...especially from John Hervey. Bobby Mims Tyler, Texas
