You should know as the alt is in your hands.
I'll take a wild guess and say IG is ignition and L would be charge light so is P earth or does it earth on bracket ?

I believe P is probably permanent live.
There are some wireing diagrams here
http://westfield-world.com/daihatsu_alternator.html
but none have exactly the same connector.

Link seem pretty much spot on.
Mine is the three terminal type, IG is the ignition live that make the charge circuit work and L is from the dashboard light which also has an
ignition live to it.
I tried wiring it with a permenant live from the "B" post but didn't like the idea it was "always on"
I'd go with the first diagram for the 4 terminal version with no perm live.
Earth is via the block as usual.

Do you mean the charge light stayed on all the time? If so something definately wrong there!
The P terminal is a remote sense wire to allow the regulator to measure battery voltage more accurately, i.e. it eliminates the error due to voltage
drop in the main battery cable.

Just got one of these alternators.
Fits perfectly, the bracket from the Swift even fits the pinto.
But cant get it to work. Used the previous link to the westie website. Mine has 3 pins and have tried the first method as the plug i got with it only
had 2 wires.
Ive tried connecting the switched earth but not getting over 12.60 across the battery which is the non running voltage too.
I havent wired up the light yet, so havent connected that wire. Do you need both to make it work? On my last alternator I just had the + feed
connected and it worked fine.
Any ideas before I go back to the scrappy and get my money back.
