3 pole alternator wiring question - JB3 - 07-17-2013
curious if someone can verify before I set things on fire.
on the below pic, can I run the two large posts to B+. and the small post to key on 12v?

It's been so long I forgot, but your hypothesis sounds reasonable.
What's another $120 in this project, just a dorp in the bucket right? The eba*y AL129X is calling your naaaaaaaame

actually this project has not been a bank breaker interestingly, just a time vacuum.
I have a big sexy alternator on a parts car I grabbed from funola that may eventually go on this van, but on the other hand, I have few electrical needs that would require anything other than stock. Ill just have to see how it performs
Wiring this up has to do with I need to take a fridge to a rental house 100 miles from here today. I may drive down there with no charging or glow system, tenant is having a shit fit, apparently all her ice cream is now an expanding pool of muck.
Ill be bringing cleaning supplies down as well. Time for this van to earn its keep. Im going to wire it that way and see what happens. wheres the fingers crossed modicon?
that worked, its charging properly. heading out on the road!
