--- Quote from: "ross501" ---new alternator only lasted 6 miles the light came on the dash and there was smoke coming from it any suggestions
--- End quote ---


take it back and get another :lol:

you cant make it blow up even if you get the wires wrong (i dont think)
not quite sure what has happened there.

ross501:
think that is a good idea  just hope ther is not a fault on my wireing

scotana:
i thought that one large wire goes to the battery +ve for charging
the other thick wire goes to the ignition for power supply(to stop you draining your battery)
and the small wire goes to the bulb on the dash(something to do with resistance)

ross501:
only 1 large wire goes to starter +   and 2 small ones 1 to dash
