Discussion:
not charging - odd electrical behavior

Machine runs fine with fully charged battery. Charge light is on some of the time and will change in brightness with rpms.. some of the time. Sometimes it is off. Also the rear work light which hasn't worked in some time somehow started working again. Not sure where to start. What generic alternator fits these so we don't have to pay the inflated Hyster price for something that is probably pretty common and available at a auto parts place?

It sounds like you have a ground problem. Check the battery ground cable. The alternator depends on the engine in your truck. pull it and take it to a local rebuilder if you do not want to deal with the dealer.
