Wiring question - Stephen Birtles - 06-19-2006 08:37 on our 77 210 n/a there is a wiring loom under the alternator which contains numerous wires including hot for alternator in this loom there is a light green wire does anyone know what this wire is for it is broken off at the engine end, and I would like to know what I have to fix next along with the runaway alternator which seems to be a seperate problem. Stephen 77fc35 Wiring question - Tom Warner - 06-19-2006 11:19 I believe your 77 FC came with a Motorola alternator with an external voltage regulator . The extra wired go to the external regulator that is mounted over the batteries against the back wall towards the front. The regulator is a prestolite 8RH2924 12v 4 amps. You probably now have a leece-Neville with an internal voltage regulator so the extra wires are no longer used.

The Lt Green goes to the fuel solenoid. The White and Dk Blue wires go under the alternator down the front and attach to the tach and temp senders, which to which I do not know? All (3) have butt connectors with a different color wire continuing. I had an alternator shop add an insulated stator post to the Motorola to get away from the DC tach which is expensive and doesn't give continued service. I was just in the front recently and don't remember any other wires. All three would go to the instrument panel and it's possible someone used point-to-point connections not caring about colors, yours or mine.
