I got a new wiring harness for my alternator because the old connector was melted into my alternator. The problem is the new connector didn't come color coated. Not sure where to start.

Here is the wiring diagram of the alternator. You should have a connector with 4 wires, and 1 is not used. So you need to use B,C,D and then the Black wire should have its own connection point.

Let me know if you still have questions and if so, can you get a picture of the connector and we will figure out which wire goes where? Thanks
