R1 Electrics

Hi All

I've started building the loom for my R1 single seater (almost finished the roughing in) but have a couple of questions:

I’m trying to connect the generator to the regulator / rectifier but, as I don’t have the original loom, I can’t work out which pins on the rectifier connect to which pins on the generator – there are 5 on the rectifier – 3 from the generator (does it matter which order these 3 phases connect to the regulator?) and the positive ‘feed’ to the battery etc, plus earth.

I’m fitting a lambda sensor and, as I’ve never fitted one before, I’m not sure on the wiring – four wire sensors seem to be the norm – signal to ECU, earth and two for the heaters (this is the bit I’m struggling on – two heaters or is this positive and earth?). Also, what kind of current draw will the heater(s) take – I need to work out cable size (it’ll need a relay anyway)?

Regards

Wyn
