[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 6522, member: 82"] I like Ken's idea, if you use the one that is on there now you need to wire it up to your ingition switch and install a diode. If you simply wire the exciting wire for the rotor direct to the battery you will drain your battery over night trust me, been there done that............ Of course the machine will be out of reach of your battery charger! I would doubt the battery was bad as it still starts the machine. The fuse would be on the line that feeds power to the alternator to excite it not the output to the battery. Depending on the state of charge of your battery determines how much power it will draw, but no more than the alternator can put out. B+ on the alternator should be wired direct to the battery, no fuse. [/QUOTE]
