Thank you for the responses and yes I did use an 8 ohm resistor to replace the old burned out one. I do have one question about wiring the regulator. The original regulator has 4 wires (brown, black, red and black). while the new regulator has 5 (brown, black, red, and two more black wires). Do two of the black wires get connected together or is there another way to wire the new regulator?
