This morning I started the diesel engine but my Balmar ARS-5 regulator did not come on. It worked last night but not this morning:doh:. The tachometer did not work, nor did the fuel gauge meter. No engine hours were recorded. Lately I've had a problem with the ignition switch not springing back fully after starting. How are all these symptoms related? Might I need a new regulator and switch, etc.
