Hmm. Connected the new voltage regulator, and the charge to the
battery is still low.
Here's what I did:
1. Mounted the new regulator to one of the ignition coil mounting
screws, which made both a secure mount and a good ground (I checked the
resistance).
2. I connected the wire formerly connected to the top field post to the
IGN stud (this is the same wire with 11.5 V when the car is running)
3. connected the FLD stud on the voltage regulator to the bottom field
post of the alternator.
4. Left the B+ wire connected to the large shielded connector on the
alternator
5. Connected the other field post and the 4th wire in the harness to
one of the bolts in the body of the alternator (the 4th wire was
formerly connected to the alternaotr body).
6. Reconnected the battery neg post and started the car.
I have not connected the resistor yet between the wires formerly
connected tot he filed posts, but from the previouis posts, it seems
like this would only affect the check engine light, not the actual
charge to the battery, yes?
Anything I'm doing worng?
