ACR Alternator wiring query

i need help with my ACR alternator wiring...

not sure which terminals do what and how they should be wired...

There are 3 Male Spade type terminals two larger than the other one, i assume one of the bigger ones is the main feed to the battery, which one is this and what does the other do? and how does the little one get wired? does it go from alternator--bulb--positive ignition? or does it go alternator--bulb--earth?

do i need a alternator light for IVA?

if not ill do away with it, but does there still need to be a feed from the positive ignition the the alternator to fire it into life?





Less weight more speed, more power more speed

If in doubt, give it a clout

Two fat terminals connected together at the alternator, big charging cable direct to the battery. Small terminal to dash light which is ign switched +12v.

More often than not if there's no ignition light (bulb blown or not connected) then the alternator won't charge.
