hi just in the last couple of days the generator light dimly lights when i have the headlights on, and if i have my phone charging thru the 12v outlet the headlights get dimmer too. Is this possibly the generator dying a slow death?, or maybe something else?

have u check the tension of the vee belt

could be the regulator

how old is the battery as well does it have correct amount of fluid in it

does the earth strap havea good connection to the bodywork

is the earth strap broken between the gearbox and body
