I have 1992 Evinrude.
I just


I have 1992 Evinrude.
I just did a numbnuts thing. Its mid winter here and I gave the ob a run. To jump start it I used my Ford truck but I accidently used 24 volts.
Its running ok but I presume I would have smoked the regulator.
With it running on the water ears I cant get the revs up enough to get a reading on the voltmeter.
Even before this it would only read a charge when the boat was on the water .
Is there some checks I can do on the charging system with putting the boat in the water
Thanks

I would not assume that it's damaged. Is it in fact a regulator? I can only find two different rectifiers listed.

If it's a just a rectifier then it is easy enough to test with a multimeter.

Later. Now discovered than one of the listed rectifiers is in fact a regulator!
