AJS & Matchless Owners Club

Hi,
I have found that direct out my altenater I'm only getting 5.7volts and according to the workshop manual it should be around 6.2-6.8 volts, the manual then goes on to say that the cause of low voltage direct from the altenater is due to a demagnetised rotor and to send the rotor back to wipac for remagnetisation.!
Does anyone know where or how I can get the rotor remagnetise.
Many thanks mat.

I had the same problem with my lucas on a 650 CSR. I got a new one over the counter from club spares.. Quicker and did not cost much more, by saving two lots of postage, to get the old reconed.

Many thanks rob I will try them in the morning.

You won't get one from the club for a lightweight as it's a Wipac unit. Not sure if anyone sells replacements for these.

There's one on Ebay at the moment along with other parts,
