Trouble Shooting the Hudson Tele-Flash Signals
The dash signal (idiot) lights consist of a Battery Charge Tell-tale and Oil Pressure Tell-tale on the instrument panel which are used instead of gauges to indicate when generator is charging battery and if oil pressure is satisfactory. They are regular lamp bulbs connected to the accessory terminal of the ignition switch (operative only with ignition switch turned 'on') and are controlled by the generator cutout relay and oil line check-valve as described below.
GENERATOR CHARGE TELL-TALE: - The
cutout relay is provided with an extra set of ground contacts above the armature
and the tell-tale lamp lead is connected to this contact "T" terminal
on the regulator case. The lamp circuit is completed to ground through these
contacts. See car wiring diagram or model page for complete wiring circuits.
Operation: - The ground
contacts are normally closed with the main contacts open and open when the main
contacts close. When the ignition is turned on, the tell-tale lamp lights and
remains lighted until the main contacts close and the generator begins to charge
the battery. The lamp should remain lighted after the car speed Is brought up
beyond the cut-in point (approximately 7 MPH).
Trouble Shooting: - If the
tell-tale lamp does not light when ignition is turned on, ground tell-tale lamp
lead "T": terminal on regulator to the engine ( not the "B'
terminal). If lamp does not light, check for burned out bulb or loose
connections (see car model page wiring diagram). If lamp lights (indicating
ground contacts open), main contacts are fused or armature spring is weak
broken. If tell-tale lamp does not go out at speeds above cut-in point, ground
contacts are not opening when main contacts close. Check generator performance
by connecting accurate test ammeter in charging line. If trouble in regulator,
car manufacturer recommends that a new or replacement regulator installed
(regulator case is sealed, do not break seal)
OIL PRESSURE TELL-TALE: - The oil line
check valve on the right side of the crankcase is provided with an insulated
terminal pin which is grounded by the check-valve plunger when no pressure
exists in the oil line. The pressure tell-tale lamp lead is connected to this
terminal. A small hole in the check-valve plunger and a by-pass In the body
allow the passage of sufficient oil so that the plunger alternately opens and
closes the circuit at idling speeds, causing the tell-tale lamp to flash.
Operation: - The plunger
rests normally against the pin when no pressure exists in the oil line so that
the tell-tale lamp will light when the ignition Is turned on. At idling speeds
the plunger alternately opens and closes the circuit so that tell-tale lamp
flashes.
At speeds above idling (approximately 7 M.P.H.), the oil pressure holds the
check-valve plunger off its seat so that the tell-tale lamp does not burn or
flash.
Trouble Shooting: - If the
tell-tale lamp does not light when the ignition is turned on, ground check-valve
terminal to engine. If lamp does not light, replace bulb. If lamp does light,
remove terminal pin and see that it is straight and clean. Take off plug on top
of check-valve housing, remove plunger and see that It is clean and moves freely
up and down. Examine spring above plunger. If tell-tale lamp does not flash at
Idling speeds, see that small hole in plunger is clean and open.
