Ryan, I think you made just need to add back the "Batt" light wire which was cut off from the wiring harness at the alternator end of the harness and at bulkhead connector end also by DMC when the Motorola upgrade was made. I traced my wiring harness and found a little stub left over on both ends. It is NY, Brown with a Yellow stripe. I believe I had to unravel some of the harness tape to see it. Then you have to connect it back to the bulkhead connector which is a pain, but in my case there was a little piece still coming out of the bulkhead connector which I was able to solder to. You can go to the download section of my website _www.dmc12.info_ (http://www.dmc12.info) and get the bulkhead layout. Let us know how it works out.

It's mounted up great and the belt is turning it just fine but I'm getting NO power from it! I could really use some advice... I had an original motorola alternator. There were only two connections to it: The main power feed (8 cables going into 2 ring connectors hooked up to the primary "batt" terminal on the alternator) and a brown wire that goes hot with the ignition on, which I assume is the sense for the regulator. There were NO other wires connected to my Motorola. I was instructed to hook up a yellow wire for the lamp light to the "L" terminal on the new 4-wire plug. I looked all over the place but couldn't find a yellow wire, nor any loose wires whatsoever. So, I mounted the alternator, connected the main power wires to the primary power terminal and connected the red "S" wire on the new 4-wire plug to the brown wire. I left the other three wires in the new 4-wire plug disconnected. I get nothing. Zero voltage output. :( Any ideas?? If it's just the lack of connecting the "L" wire, can someone tell me where in the world I should start looking for that wire? Where does it go or route from? Which wire loom does it come out of? As I said I looked all over the place, it's not to be found anywhere... Thanks for any help, -Ryan Thank you, Dave "Just Say NO, to the COUCH POTATO!"® To see how go to _www.tvpedaler.com_ (http://www.tvpedaler.com/) [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
