Madcowz Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Evening, I've searched Googlies and this forum but haven't yet found an answer. I'm fitting a landreiziger loom to my 1989 One Ten with a retro fitted Disco 200tdi and it says to take a feed from the alternator and comes supplied with a ring terminal. I've got the alternator on the bench, cleaned it up and in addition to the main wiring I can see a W and B+ terminal. I know the W is for a stator pulse but would I be correct in saying the B+ is a battery feed and I can use this for the loom? Also, is this a A127 alternator? I haven't seen any stickers or part numbers yet but it could be under the rest of the grime. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim2809 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 took mine off the b+ post but made sure i had an inline fuse as close to the alternator as possible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madcowz Posted November 27, 2018 Author Share Posted November 27, 2018 Thanks for all the replies. I used the B+ terminal. The loom has two inline fuses to the relays so all good. It's made a huge difference to the headlights. They have gone from a feeble orange glow to white just like all those modern cars. Well impressed. Must admit, getting the alternator back in was a pain. Spent ages trying to line it up properly with the mount. got there in the end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
