Have overhauled several LWs including removing the top frame from the bottom and thought I was getting pretty good at it until I ran into the same problem with one that would not put out any voltage from the U post and was about to give up on it when I noticed where the metal strip contacted the rectifier plate there was a burnt spot between the strip and plate causing poor contact and high resistance. Got in there with a small auto points type file, pressed up on the strip with a screwdriver and inserted the file between the strip and plates until I got a smooth service between the two. Started working ok after that.
