on that S teminal wire where its suppose to go to a fuse i do not have a fuse there just connected to some wires that go into the fuse box

 

nice writeup...

 

Oh yeah, just my reading glasses failing me That's why original pdf of schematics work best.

Should connect to 40A fuse. However, not critical. All "S" does is measure battery voltage and send it back to regulator so latter can change stator to compensate.

Thank you! The least I can do to give back to the community that helped me find Ruby Tuesday

 

Sorry for long reply just been so busy but finally have a chance to work on my truck with ea1 connector disconnected the light is off but my engine will not start with it disconnected checking all wiring now

 

Well after digging around i thought it was alternator that went bad. Got a lifetime warranty one from autozone. Installed the new alternator and hooked everything up like it was. When i first turned on my ignition the battery light did not appear on the dash, after starting it the light was off and the alternator was not charging. I had it hooked up on the isolator. Than i hooked it B terminal on alternator straight to the battery. The battery light apperared on the dash was did not light up. I than dug through all the wiring again and what i believe happened was on the "IG" terminal there was a wired spliced into it that goes onto the delcotron connection on the isolator. I believe that connection was bad. I than fixed the problem with some butt connectors ( temp fix for now until i solder the wires) Hooked everything up even with second battery everything was charging and no battery light on. Could not dig up anything else so hopefully that was it

 

thanks for the help rad4runner

 

Cool! Most welcome. Makes sense, because the IG terminal is what gives the alternator, its field current. No field current means nothing generated, like no yeast = no beer

Isolator must be using IG voltage from IG fuse to tell it that engine's on.

Hope that's it.
