Alternator Replacement/Wiring
Posted: Thu Aug 09, 2018 3:41 pm
I just replaced my dead alternator in my 1991 Delica L300 P35W with a remanufactured one and I ended up with a wire that I don't know what to do with. I connected (all the obvious ones on the alternator) the main "terminal" connection, a connection with the rubber gasket over it, and the big 25mm one on the upper right side of the alternator, but there is a black shielded wire that I don't remember taking off...an earth connection or something? But where does it go? It's just an exposed wire on the end that had a j-hook shape. Any ideas? It looks like it stretches beyond the alternator (meaning it's pretty long, not obviously the same length as the alternator)
