Battery? Alternator? Multimeter? Help!!

[84clonewars]

Jack, I didn't use a resistor due to my original setup have a gauge and not an idiot light. I asked because I believe Santos would need a resistor because of his factory idiot light, I'd hate to see his alternator blow up because of a 3$ part. As for the video I will post it when I get home, due to some bar language I'd rather reshoot it lol.

Antoine,
When Santos disconnected the original plug going to his gauge cluster. He killed his GEN. warning light circuit, which in turn did not excite, or energize his alternator.
He definitely could not continue to run it that way, or his alternator would have been toast.

All truth right there Jack. Doesn't it feel good to help out a fellow gbody/car guy.

That's true. You did post a warning. Not for the faint hearted.... :lol:

I think I confused you with Mark, because Mark is usually the "go-to" guy when it comes to wiring issues.. :wink:
