Ammeter to Voltmeter conversion

The amount of output from the alternator is controlled by the fields - the actual "charge" - (the red wire) from the alternator in many mopars goes through the amp-gauge in the dash. That is the circuit that, as the article suggests, should go directly to the battery - especially if you have increased the draw (electric fans, electric water pump... tc....). That often melts the gauge or the wire that feeds it.
