Alternator

Thanks!

the only thing needed to get the ford 3g alt working is to put a 500ohm resistor in the signal power wire before the alt to drop the voltage abit. all it takes a little 1/4watt or 1/2watt electronics resistor to do the job.

Alright, alt finally took a poo on me. Looking into the Ford 3g alt. The smallest 500 ohm resistor I can find is a 5 watt. An they all seem to be for motherboards that you would solder in place.... Am I looking at the wrong ones and is a resistor necessary? Sorry to bump an old thread!

Why is a resistor needed to run the 130 amp?

Bump

Will an 88-90 100 amp Taurus one fit the same but without the need of a resistor?

Somebody? Anybody?

I don't see any reason a resistor is needed at all.

Thank you! Guess I'll order one of those bad boys. Guess if something gets fried I'll figure it out then lol

Just now getting around to ordering this thing. I can't tell if this is a 1 wire or 3 wire. Anyone wanna help me out some more? Lol just want this to go as easy as possible.
