New Member with charging issue
So you ARE using the 70 / later "flat" regulator?
Should be hooked up like this...........
In reality you only need to run one new wire.....from the "ignition run" blue down to the second field terminal of course 'as usual' the VR MUST be grounded.
The two wires at the new VR could be the old ones, re-used. If you are using a "junkyard" VR connector, you might suspect that.
The top - end of the ballast resistor is the "jump off" point. That is "ignition run" feeding one wire to the field, and the other (factory) runs to the IGN terminal of the VR.
NOTICE that the IGN terminal of the VR is the middle terminal, and the FIELD is on the far right. These are NOT reversible
