That is a good explanation for me especially since I will most likely be wiring this from scratch, I'll need something for reference material. After I got off the phone with you I just couldn't go to sleep without inspecting more. Even though we were positive it doesn't contain these wires I checked an extra engine harness (passenger side) that I had laying around and it was loaded with 'T' shaped connectors so I just threw that back in the box. . . I looked for possible remains my OE two pin alternator connector by peeling back the loom on the drive side harness, still nothing. It wasn't there but what I did find was that my alternator was warm (this was after leaving that connection I made on the previous page connected for what, a couple hours?). . Looking into that, I found that I had the 'L' terminal (for dash) connected straight to battery, definitely not right. __________________ 1993 Yamaha GTS1000 1992 Celica Turbo AllTrac 1987 RX7 Sport 1979 Yamaha G1, KM24 powered 1975 Dolmar KMS4 Last edited by FC Zach; 02-24-2017 at 12:30 AM..
