I looked on my amp meter and it has 2 poles, but they are not marked - or + ?
I have an aftermarket key switch.
Does it matter what type of alternator it is? The one on it was bought by the previous owner and I have no idea if it the correct on for the system. Thanks Jorge | | |

Those are excellent links. I farted around most of the morning peeking at alternator stuff and didn't find anything nearly as clear and concise as this.

I am running 12 volts and a generator.
I thought this would be something I could do pretty easily.. | | |
