Ok, you can determine if the generator or regulator is at fault, by removing the field wire from the regulator, then ground the field terminal at the generator. If eliminating the regulator increases the ammeter reading to a high level, the trouble lies in the voltage regulator. If it doesn't increase the output, the generator is at fault.
Before doing this test, test the condition of the battery if you haven't.
