I may start posting this trio of pics every time I see a thread on alternator problems. This is *hopefully* all you really need to know about 1G, 2G, and 3G charging systems - if your wiring duplicates the corresponding one of these circuits in function, the problem is almost certainly in one of your components. Dash lights are optional - it works just as well to run your green wire straight to any ignition-hot source.

I've done the straight ignition hot thing before. it does indeed work fine. The idiot light is only important in that it completes the circuit. If you give it power directly with no idiot light, it still works fine.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
