Anyway, what should I put on this stupid screw to stop it from
vibrating loose? LocTite? Another lock washer? There's no way to
safety wire it...

Thanks!


Can you get a bolt/screw that will fit the threads and which can
be safety wired? ... or would that not be an "approved" part?

Yeah, that's a great idea. Safety wire the field terminal to ground.
Might keep the nut from loosening up, but I'll bet your voltage
regulator won't like the resulting short to ground much.

Was the sarcasm really necessary Ray? I assumed the OP would know
whether or not safety wire could be used in such a case.
