Turned out that the generator was not at fault. I had exactly the same problem as Wiley '93 940 - Electrical Short ... SRS Light Stays On ... Instrument Cluster Issue? 900
What should have caught my eye was that the no charge lamp never lit, but I've had the SRS lamp every now and then for about 6 months so I didn't make the connection from that lamp to the flat battery.

Flex board resoldered and charging works OK now. The new generator was not waisted money since it was probably about to give up any day. I have about 0,5V measured between battery + and generator output when it's charging a low battery. Is that normal or something that should be adressed?

Anybody knows what is the purpose of the connection from the SRS box to the D+ connector on the generator?
