>Okay, here's one for you. How can you tell if a vehicle has been switched

Look at the positive pole on your battery and see if it is routed to the
frame or the starter switch.
The land Rover is wired for positive earth if the wire goes to the frame.
About your amp meter. With the ignition turned off, turn on your
headlamps. If the needle swings into the negative side the gauge is
wired properly for the current battery polarity. If it swings to the
positive side you need to switch the wires on the back of the gauge.
If you are not sure if your charging system is working and you feel like
you are in over your head, remember that Sears and other companies
provide free charging systems diagnostics.
I have never had any problem letting them decide if the problem is my
generator or my voltage regulator.
