cw01 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Help needed as I stupidly connected the battery up wrong way round resulting in the lead that comes out the alt melting. I have fabricated a new lead and plug, but my problem now is I have cut the wires at the far end ( bulkhead end) with one cut, and now I cant figure out the correct way to join the two large brown wires. I know its a 50/50 chance of getting it right or wrong, so if i get it wrong, what further damage am I likely to do? Do the two thick brown wires do the same thing?, or is there another solution to ny problem?. Piccys might help, so here goes Its this wire i've melted its this end I need to connect, but dont know how to make sure the brown wires are connected the right way round. Your help would be greatly appreciated, as I hope to do this tommorow. chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffernutter Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Both wires connect to the same point in teeh alternator, so it doesn't matter how you connect them. If I remember correctly, one goes to the battery, the other to the fusebox/ignition area. Cheers Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
