Author Message   Foximus Posted on Friday, January 13, 2012 - 05:47 pm:        I could not find my original thread... So I'll start this one... and keep it more organized. So I have a 97 S1. I put an XB charging system on it. 38amp 3 phase. It did work when I installed it. I realized a few weeks ago I was having high voltage. Up to 18 volts. I replaced the voltage regulator. The new voltage regulator briefly did the same thing. Over charging to 18 volts. After much frustration of thinking I got the wiring wrong... ( I may have fried it in the process?) It now does not charge. At best it can barely sustain the battery. Also... the voltage regulator gets VERY hot. I can't find my laser thermo... but I'd say it would get to 160*-180*. I thought this might be because of a bad positive link to the battery, unable to unload all of the voltage so it would dissipate it as heat... double checked all that. Still no. Checked the ground... Still no. How hot does yours get? Should I just go ahead and buy ANOTHER one?
