[QUOTE="peebeeaitch, post: 67409, member: 8318"] Ok, I think I have it figured. And actually, I was a bit of a dufus. This manual drawing: [IMG]http://bobcat.thesouthpole.co.za/BloodSweatAndTears/2013-07-24_01.jpg[/IMG] shows the three wires coming from the alternator. Two of them are joined after the regulator and rectifier and go to the ROPS connector (the orange wire). This is the photo of what mine looked like during motor removal: [IMG]http://bobcat.thesouthpole.co.za/BloodSweatAndTears/2013-03-31_01.jpg[/IMG] The unidentified wires are the white from the rectifier and regulator. On the regulator (on right) one can see a T join, so obviously the white from the rectifier gets joined to the black from the regulator. The other side of the regulator goes to the ROPS. This manual picture: [IMG]http://bobcat.thesouthpole.co.za/BloodSweatAndTears/2013-07-24_02.jpg[/IMG] shows the orange going through the ammeter (third gauge from left) and becoming red which in the image above (duplicated): [IMG]http://bobcat.thesouthpole.co.za/BloodSweatAndTears/2013-07-24_01.jpg[/IMG] goes to the battery via the starter solenoid. What was confusing me was this: [IMG]http://bobcat.thesouthpole.co.za/BloodSweatAndTears/2013-02-24_2.jpg[/IMG] which is also from the manual and seems to show the joined wires running to a “ground“ lug. In hindsight, the lug is the one that connects the wire to the ammeter, and the blank spot in the wire drawing must be where the ROPS connector is located. So I think I have it. Perhaps smoke this weekend will prove otherwise... [/QUOTE]
