Engine keeps running with key off
But only if the DF wire is connected to the REG. With it connected it charges.
Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

Re: Engine keeps running with key off
I figured it out. 
I had the coil power circuit tied into the power for the Gen, Oil, Dome light and it was feeding power back thru the coil power circuit.

Really.... Ummm.... That is how most systems are wired if you look at any VW schematic....david58 wrote:I figured it out. :roll: I had the coil power circuit tied into the power for the Gen, Oil, Dome light and it was feeding power back thru the coil power circuit. :D
With alternator systems we call it "run on" and use a diode in D+ lead to stop situation...
Should not happen in Generator system as there should not be "feed back"on terminal 61 (GEN lamp) of regulator...

I think it is because of the Porsche steering column and the GM wiring conversion.Dale M. wrote:Really.... Ummm.... That is how most systems are wired if you look at any VW schematic....david58 wrote:I figured it out.
