xt 660 z charging problem

Maybe this problem�s been on this fora before, in wich case I apologize for being lazy not searching enough.
I have a tenere z -09. Love the bike but been having some problems lately. The loading stops working, the yellow light starts blinking and when I stop the battery is drained. Yamaha havn�t yet found whats wrong!!??
The first time it happened I found that the kontakt from the regulator was a bit black inside. I cleaned it and loaded the battery and it worked for a cuple of weeks. Then it happened again. Left the bike with Yamaha.(don�t want to screw up the guaranti ) They changed the cables from the reg. including the kontakt. It�s all put together as one pice and you�re not supposed to take it apart.
After a couple of weeks it happened again. This time I was stranded on a highway Yamaha picked me up in yust a couple of hours (good so far) Now they are saying they can�t seem to find the problem, they have run computeranalys, but that they will try change ing the wiring in the generator. I was planing going north by the high mountains in Sweden and Norway next week. Don�know if I dare now. Not a soul for quite long stretches sometimes and for certain don�t want to be stranded there. Anyone has any idea? Sorry about the English.
