Replace the Voltage Regulator.

Did you disconnect the generator from the regulator, and connect a jumper from DF on the generator to the generator frame. Run the engine and measure the voltage from ground to D+
on the generator.
Increasing the engine speed, the voltage should jump up to +35
volts or so @3000 RPM.
