Charging system

[nemesis]

Hi and thanks for help in advance ! lol

I'm scratch wiring a gs550 for a friend now as far as I can see got the lighting side sorted, next is the charging. He's given me a 7 wire Reg/Rec, 3 white/yellows, a red a black a brown and a green wire present.

As I see it , the 3 white/yellows join into the alternator wires, the black is an earth, red goes to the battery and the brown and green join to kick in the third coil in the alternator when lighs are on. If this is right I can join the green and brown as the lights come on with the ignition

Am I correct upto now ?

Cheers again Mark

check here to see if it is compatible. It could be an R/R for an alternator style or have some other incompatibility.

Hi,

Where did this r/r unit come from? You'd better get a part number or something so that you can check the pin outs before you start hooking it up. Some r/r units use the black wire as a "sense" wire and green wires as grounds. I don't know what the brown wire would be used for.


Thank you for your indulgence,
