    Default Alternator wiring

    Hey guys,

    I need some help with the 20v alternator to the 4ac voltage regulator. I'v identified the 3 wires for the voltage regulator but I have no idea how the colours much up.

    Also I'v notice that the 16v wiring diagram seems to have the alternator and the volatge reg built in together. Is this the same as the 20v. Or is it as simple as matching the 3 wires that come out of the alternator the the 3 wires going in to the volatge reg.

    Cheers,

    Kez.

    P.S

    I have the 20v wiring man. but it is as confusing as hell and I don't know japanese.

    you do not need the voltage regulator for a 20v alternator or 16v for that matter as they are built into the altternator

    Pretty straight forward with the wires now hey

    Are you talking about the 3 pin plug which connects to the alternator? Cos from what I remember, you connect white to white, Green to yellow and black to red/blue. Can anyone else confirm this?

    I'm talking about the 3 wires that come out of the 20v alternator and the 3 wires going into the 4ac voltage reg.

    But I kinda figured that biggo was right with the voltage reg being part of the alternator. If you wire it like that don't you have 2 voltage regulators, which seems pointless.
