My electrical guy rebuilt my alternator with internal regulator, told me to tape up the field wires and should be fine. 5.2 efi, runs fine, charging voltage great, but will this drain my battery by not having the ignition switch involved?
Dodge Dakota sport V6 Magnum series 3.9
And how wiring 2000 need selenoide or external relay ?
It would be nice if he would show where he hooked up the wires.
I did this to my d150 and now I have pulsing on the gauge and lighting at idle. I used the power window circuit for my voltage since i have manual windows. Any help with the pulsing would be appreciated.
Why’s the thumbnail a pic of a 3rd gen?
My Dakota stopped charging, and I got a single wire alternator from the parts store for $50. The light on the dash stayed on, but it charged.
My truck is setup exactly like this but the alt just will not charge. Replaced alternator, regulator, and alt fuse. I'm about to sell this truck.
Thanks for the terrible drawing and explanation. Why couldn’t you just make a video of you actually connecting everything for us to see.
I had bought one of those dam thing an it still doesn't want to charge..
So in saying that those two wires at around 215 or 210 can go either way he's stating that there is no polarity difference here someone help me out I'm having this problem and I don't know which wire to place into which terminal
Question: Did this to my 2000 2500 Ram. Amp gauge indicates fine for about 30 seconds or so, then maxes out, check gauge light comes on. Battery voltage is still charging at 14.5 volts. any idea what would be causing this?
