Thanks, 73A, and boy I hate those procedures where ya go back to square one and follow a methodical step - by - step plan. BUT THEY WORK!!

In this case though, the problem turned out to be the blue wire instead of the green wire on the alternator field connector. Workin' fine now!

The clue.of course, was that the overcharging started with the new wiring harnesses. A bunch of plug-in connections and one was incorrect.

ATB and HAPPY NEW YEAR
