Attach the alternator plugs to the 1987-1993 Alternator.
If you are using a one-wire Alternator, cut the large plug off the wires and attach two 10-12
gauge ring connectors to the two large wires and attach them to the post on the alternator. The
other plug and wires are not used.
If you would like to have a light on the dash indicating that the alternator is charging, put a dash light in
line with the brown ignition wire coming from the ignition switch and put a 510Ω resistor between the
two light wires. Set-up this way, when the engine is started the light will turn on then go out. If the
Alternator stops working, the light will stay on.
Troubleshooting
Some of the areas that can cause problems are:
Inertia Switch – This switch can cause a "no start" problem. Make sure that the button is pushed down.
Wire connections – Tape connections are not recommended. The best connection is a soldered
connection that has heat shrink tubing over it. If this is not possible, a well crimped connector is
recommended.
Grounds – Make sure that the ground wires are connected to clean bare metal surfaces. Battery grounds
must be attached to the battery.
If a radio is being used connect the power wires to the radio.
If a heater or wiper system is being used, connect the wires using the instructions from that option.
