- 2003 Sport Trac XLT
So a month ago I bought a 2003 Sport Trac XLT and previous owner told me the alternator had been changed
The truck had an auto start when it's cold witch was faulty and 2 system to unlock/start the car, had to remove everything because even in the heated garage, the truck would start on its own
And there was another "special" system on the truck, the green/yellow wire from the alternator, plugged with the wiper motor, distributor and headlamp with a nice light that seemed to indicate that everything was working well in synch with the lamp auto shutoff
Since I removed all the systems, alt is not charging
I resoldered everything back in its place after my clean up
please help, when the truck is started I put the voltmeter on the neg of the battery and on the big wire of the alt, I have 12v and dropping quickly
Would the green/yellow wire be one for the voltr regulator inside the alternator?
Here's the amount of wire that was added to the truck:
