www.junkyardgenius.com/charging/ford02.html LUCKLY, Ford only primarily used about 4 Alternators, and 3 of the 4 used the samewiring from the voltage regulator to the alternator. I'll post them all as I get ..
The voltage regulator is built into the alternator. Your alternator should use a plug that is molded into a 90 degree angle, has four holes and 3 pins. A two wire connector fits an alternator made in the 70s and 80s.
knowing the color codes can be a great help..usually in 12v reg system,from the regulator there are 6 white wire having a stripe codes,blue means neutral,green means field,black means ground to body,white means hot wired to +12v,yellow means to bat charging indicator going to instrument panel and finally red means to ignition....and always secure the regulators case to ground.
if it is not charging -- then the problem is the alternator. check the alternator ( at the alternator ) for output. if there is voltage there - then the problem is the wires between the alternator and the battery. this could be the voltage regulator ( if it is not a internally regulated alternator ). or it could just be a bad wire.
now if it turns out to be the alternator -- replace it with a internally regulated alternator,,, this will help simplify things in future diagnostics.
manual voltage regulator or electronic ,either way its simple ,one wire from battery or ignition switch runs to regulator for the sensing then one from the alternator and another to earth .if stuck i have a 40yr old lucas manual in the shed ,or just fit a all in one alternator on ,not difficult
Your wiring diagram shows a fusible link between the battery and alternator. Also shows an optional voltage regulator. Trace the wire from the alternator back to the battery. Look for that fuse and regulator. I will paste the diagram below.
Hi
The only thing that I need is the diagram on how to connect a voltage regulator (12 V), car unit
on my wind generator motor which my produce more than 12 V, according to the wind speed.
