will98D,
I managed to get the alternator "working" today. The grounds are all good, I'm _pretty_ sure about that. The only thing I can find on the alternator says, "Titan 7127-3". The way I ended up hooking it up is as follows:
1) Alternator "Bat" terminal -> Amperage gauge B+ terminal
2) Amperage gauge L+ terminal to + on the battery
3) Alternator "2" terminal with patch wire to the "Bat" terminal on the alternator
4) Alternator "1" terminal into internal accessories that are switched on/off with the ignition key.
This seems to be working, but the incredibly high + amperage that the gauge reads while driving has me a little concerned. It's reading about +30 to +40 amps. That doesn't seem right.
Some other questions about electrical if there's anyone out there so inclined to help me again!
1) My turn signal relay clicks incessantly at random times. Is this a sign that it's failing or that it's somehow shorting somewhere.
2) Does anyone have an ACCURATE list of what the individual fuse positions should be from left to right on a 1976 914? I'm talking about from left to right as the fuse block is installed in the car with left being closest to the front trunk release handle.
3) With my car completely off, when I push the turn signal to the right, my tach and speedometer gauge lights come on. This can't be normal!
I think I'm just looking at all the aging wires in my car knowing that I need to probably get around to replacing them all, but I don't even know where to begin. I really want to replace the dash in the car with a custom molded one that has a little more style to it, and that probably will be a good time to redo most of the wiring.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks again for everyone's suggestions and help!
