If you can find someone with a Metro, ask if you can look in their engine
compartment. Maybe the wires will either be color coded, or easily
traceable. I'd love to do this mod on my bike, but I'm not gonna fix what
ain't broke, especially if that alternator has a lot of gold in it! I

to own a VW Rabbit, so I know what you mean by that. They're cursed with
expensive replacement parts too.
Hope this helps! Good luck.

Thank you for the reply. The alternator was purchased at AutoZone and I

have them test it but it is done on a fool proof machine that will tell

if it is good or bad but not anything else cable and adaptors are not
explained just connect wire d to adapter a type stuff. The counter person
knows nothing but how to look up parts. This alternator is for a Geo

12volt 55amp rebuilt. From the price it has a significant gold content.

label on it reads

World Class
remanufactured
14850 34
BARCODES
made in Japan J104

On the back of the alternator ther is the output post and a plug

with three spade connectors. I think all the Metros use the same
alternator.
I will try again to find more info on my own but any help would be
appreciated.

Go to an auto parts house that can check alternators--take the Geo alt

with

you. Tell them to check it and then watch how they hook it up. If you

know

what type of Geo it came off of, the person checking will look up the

wiring

diagram to hook it up. Plus you get it tested to make sure that it's

working

correctly. It should be pretty easy to see the wiring when he does it.

You

might even write it down--offer the explanation that maybe the vehicle

is

wired wrong if you feel compelled to offer one. For what it's worth,

most

internally regulated alternators only use 2 wires--one from the switch

that

"excites" the alt, and the cable to the battery, (sometimes 3

that's the one that depends--like to the idiot light or fuse

box--someplace

where it can "sense" current usage). It should be pretty easy to wire.

Another option is to visit your local library--they should have shop

manuals

for Geos or can get one. Trace the path of the alt wiring--it only

in
2

or 3 places. If you want, mail me the particular alt info and I'll

into

it. I've never done it on a Loop, but I've switched a number on cars

over

the years.

Hi.

The Guzzi you see on the map in Columbus, GA is going to stay

there
if

I

don't get some help connecting this alternator. I've seen photos on

this

list of this conversion so I know at least some of you know what has

to
be

done to hook it up electricaly. Please help a fellow Looper. I will

the

one not making the rallys until I can get this sorted out. I have

searched

on the net for an electrical diagram for this alternator and can

nothing
there are no marking for the electrical connections in the plug,

alternator was very expensive and I bought it with the idea that a

of

the list members had done this before and would be willing to share

the

knowedge.
I know that it takes a while to get info and type a reply and don't

expect

an immediate answer just tell me that someone is willing to help

they

get the time.

Only riding in my dreams,

Allan
