If a generator turns off or will not start up due to loss of magnetism, it is possible to use a 12 volt battery to make it work. You have to remove the exciter fields, measure the exciter field resistance, connect the F+ to the positive end of the battery, hold the F- lead near the insulated part of the lead wire and place it on the negative end of the battery for 5 to 10 seconds, then reconnect F+ and F- to the regulator.?æ

Why does your battery keep going flat in your corsa?

There are two common reasons for this. The first is that your generator(alternator) is not charging properly. The second is that your battery is going bad and not holding charge. If it is driving okay once it is jump started then your generator is probabably good and the battery needs to be replaced. I am betting the battery is going bad bc of a bad cell in it. Replace it and I bet it will be fine. A battery can fail with no warning whatsoever. It is more common that one might think. Hope this helps. Good luck.


Do you need a battery to make a circuit?

no, but you do need a power source, such as a cell or a power pack if you do not want to use a battery.


What causes a battery to reverse polarity?

Discharging it to 0V (ie. absolutely empty). And not battery, but "cell" (even a small AA or AAA battery is consider a "cell" - think Duracell).Batteries are usually made up of individual cells (like car batteries, RC batteries etc.), and even if not all of them are discharged completely, if even just one cell reverses polarity, it will do irreversible damage to the battery.


What is a cell battery?

Batteries such as AA, AAA, D, and C are actually single cells. A battery is a collection of cells put together to deliver a higher voltage or current than a single cell. A PP3 9 volt battery is in fact a true battery as it is made up from 6 separate 1.5 volt cells. However the term battery is so often used to describe a single cell that it is nothing more than pedantic to correct it to "cell", a term than few people are familiar with.
