replacing ammeter with a volt meter? - 09/30/14 12:16 AM
i am looking to upgrade the alternator on my 62 valiant, and i would like to make the ammeter into a volt meter.
i am an electrician by trade and i understand the theory of both types of meters, and i know how to do the conversion on a portable analog ammeter, but i am baffled by the spare ammeter i have in front of me, it seems to have no coil, and the shunt is the aluminium gauge face?
i would like to keep the original gauge, is there a conversion kit or anything available?
thanks
