ABSTRACT:
A generation control apparatus for a vehicle generator includes an energization circuit consisting of an energization path forming resistance element and switching means and provided between the output terminal of a rectifier circuit of the generator and the ground, and an oscillator circuit responsive to the voltage at the output terminal of the rectifier circuit to always oscillate and control the energization circuit, whereby an energization path is intermittently provided in response to the output signal of the oscillator circuit. If a generation fault condition is detected, current is caused to flow from a battery through a key switch, indicator means and the energization path forming resistor intermittently and the driver of the vehicle is alerted to the generation fault of the generator or a break in an excitation circuit by a flashing of the indicator means.
