you have to be very carefull with language things like rectifiers and regulators are really different things, as are DC producing Dynamos and AC producing alternators- both generators, and different countries may have differing slang terms for the things.

I'll be buggered. Fitted new regulator Wehrle (CTA Holland) fitted on some TA + fitted another motorbike regulator only to discover that I had no charge at all. Not even when making a brigde between D+ and DF+. Found an old Paris Rhone regulator, fitted it and bingo 7.3 volt. Maybe your statement is correct that only matching parts are working. That means big problems ahead since no new Paris Rhone regulators are available. Bloody hell what to do?

Thank you for your call it was an honnor to me......

Hope I could help you......

Likewise, thanks heaps for your help. Will contact the Ami folks in the Netherlands you gave me.

Cheers

it might be very possible to repair the components, don,t disregard them!
for instance a dynamo can be repaired

Soooooooo yesterday I was at Han's place, he told me he send you a Paris Rhone regulator.........
and does it work?????

It is not here yet. Very surprised that Han shipped the goodies after I pissed him off

Meanwhile I fitted a Ducellier dynamo and a Paris Rhone regulator. Now it is working fine. Thanks for your assistance. No other 6 volt brand regulator is working with the dynamo. Lesson learned, mixed systems won't work.
I'm still looking to stock up on 6 volt dynamo and regulators. I have many Ami and 2cv's coming in with problems. Next job is to find someone able to fix 2cv dynamo's without handing over the 2cv but to ship the complete dynamo for overhauling. Had a quote from a Dutch company asking 240 euros, forget it

Do not mix Ducillier and Paris rhone parts/regulators. They seem to work together until they burn out. As an emergency, ducillier brushes will be a wobbly fit in a Paris Rhone, but prone to excessive wear/burnout. PRs definitely don't fit Ducillier
