Thank you for the reply. The alternator was purchased at AutoZone and I
did
have them test it but it is done on a fool proof machine that will tell
you
if it is good or bad but not anything else cable and adaptors are not explained just connect wire d to adapter a type stuff. The counter person knows nothing but how to look up parts. This alternator is for a Geo
metro.
12volt 55amp rebuilt. From the price it has a significant gold content.
The
label on it reads
World Class remanufactured 14850 34 BARCODES made in Japan J104
On the back of the alternator ther is the output post and a plug
receptical
with three spade connectors. I think all the Metros use the same
alternator.
I will try again to find more info on my own but any help would be appreciated.

Allan Go to an auto parts house that can check alternators--take the Geo alt
with
you. Tell them to check it and then watch how they hook it up. If you
know
what type of Geo it came off of, the person checking will look up the
wiring
diagram to hook it up. Plus you get it tested to make sure that it's
working
correctly. It should be pretty easy to see the wiring when he does it.
You
might even write it down--offer the explanation that maybe the vehicle
is
wired wrong if you feel compelled to offer one. For what it's worth,
most
internally regulated alternators only use 2 wires--one from the switch
that
"excites" the alt, and the cable to the battery, (sometimes 3 wires--and that's the one that depends--like to the idiot light or fuse
box--someplace
where it can "sense" current usage). It should be pretty easy to wire.
Another option is to visit your local library--they should have shop
manuals
for Geos or can get one. Trace the path of the alt wiring--it only goes
in
2
or 3 places. If you want, mail me the particular alt info and I'll look
into
it. I've never done it on a Loop, but I've switched a number on cars
over
the years.

Hi.
The Guzzi you see on the map in Columbus, GA is going to stay
there
if
I
don't get some help connecting this alternator. I've seen photos on
this
list of this conversion so I know at least some of you know what has
to
be
done to hook it up electricaly. Please help a fellow Looper. I will be
the
one not making the rallys until I can get this sorted out. I have
searched
on the net for an electrical diagram for this alternator and can find nothing there are no marking for the electrical connections in the plug, this alternator was very expensive and I bought it with the idea that a few
of
the list members had done this before and would be willing to share
the
knowedge. I know that it takes a while to get info and type a reply and don't
expect
an immediate answer just tell me that someone is willing to help when
they
get the time.
Only riding in my dreams,
Allan
