Hi,
I need help in determining what is the use of each wire in tha alternator socket and where does it go. Simple diagram might be helpful. I dont have a lancer, just the alternator. I want to utilize the alternator to be a form of battery charger ( not in a car).There were lots of wires and I think I only need two, but which two? TNX
