Alternator Question??

[randydupree]

keep us advised please! the leece-neville alternators are a one wire set
up.meaning you don't need a wire to excite the unit.they use a ground wire,and
the main battery wire.when you rev the engine to 1000 rpm or so they self
excite.so,i'm thinking that those relays and switch will no longer do anything
for my bird.that switch and all that stuff is cool,but not really needed! i
never touch the switch in my 93 wb..randydupree93wb

The six relays either control which alternator you are running or
the ammeter circuit. Could be both. I'm studying the wiring
diagram that Benny sent me.
