Ijust installed a Ford Alternator which uses the external Regulator as used from 65-75 approx. It is wired correctly. The wire for the Idiot Light is on the "I" Terminal of the Regulator. Not charging. Is that wire supposed to be hooked into the 'A" Terminal on the Regulator to make a complete Circiut for the Light and get the Alternator charging? Anyone done this with the Alternator I am using. When the Generator was used the Wire for Light was on the "A" Terminal. I am using a 1G Ford Alternator. Using the original Wiring the "B" Terminal on Alt. goes to "A" Terminal on Reg. "F" goes to "F". "I" takes the wire to Light on Dash. Stator on Alt gets a new Wire to "S" on Regulator. I have 2 Wires that were on the "B" Terminal on original Regulator. The large Gauge Yellow goes to the to Solenoid to charge Battery.Small One not sure where it ends up. Those 2 Wires are where I am having trouble. Right now they are hooked in"A" Terminal on Reg. along with the "B" Wire from Alternator. Not charging. I found one Diagram online that shows those 2 Wire on the "S' terminal on Regulator. Anyone know for sure where they are supposed to go when converting to Alternator. I am NOT using a 1 Wire Alternator because when researching before I did this they are not recommended by quite a few People. Easy to install but not as good as a 1G 2G or 3G Alternator.
