Rick's T- Bucket CS 144 Alternator Build

Won't tarnish from condensation easy.
Powder coat has a bad habit of popping bubbling on aluminum alloys here in the midwest winter.
Warms up. Tempa drop. Dew point reached. Condesation freezes.
Next day piwoder coat paint ruined.
Watched $2 k Of powder coat coat get ruined on my Brothers 1994 Fatboy.
He wad ticked off.

If you accidently scratch the high temp ceramic silver
paint, You can Rub it out with Never Dull Wool pad polish Rick.
Its actually ultra fine aluminum powder in a ceramic base.

Just so happens, I have some Never Dull already.

The pair of twisted Red & Brown wires is your CS144 To T-bucket wiring hookup.
Thin Brown wire is Alternator turn on.

That's three wires, so I don't use the gray wire?
 
We tested with the single "L"- lamp wire. Thin brown wire. Twisted next to the 12guage Red wire.
The S Red 12 Gauge wire is not required to work .
Can tie off.
Some aplications had the S wire connected to the Alternator charge output lug.
Other apps had Red S wire connected to Ignition switch Run position.
Gray wire & Other thin brown wires tied together, used in Computer controlled charging output control.

L lamp brown wire switched on with ignition key.
Wired in series with Idiot alternator dash lamp bulb.
I would connect D 12 guage Red wire to back of alternator charge output lug.
Eyelet terminal used.
 
Not D Rick.
12gauge S red wire.
Saturates Regulator electronics with 12vdc.
Will cause a slight paristic battery draw. Likely 2-3 Milliamps.
