Mini Denso 1 wire conversion

Hmm, maybe paint the Oilver ORANGE ??

OK, use a smaller pulley on the alternator or higher revs ( to start the charge mode...)

pretty sure there's some MINIMUM RPM the alternator has to run at to 'start' the process

for sure someone will respond.

I've only used the CS130 series, so 3 wire... I like the 'idiot light' hookup.it also says 'the belt is  broken'

Like mentioned above, just TOUCH the BIG LUG terminal to the small "L" (#1) momentarily and see if that works... may not need CONSTANT voltage.

With motor running, just use a 12 inch jumper and TOUCH the BIG LUG to one of the smaller terminals and see if the alternator KICKS IN.... thats a simple test prior to doing all the hard wiring..

As jay mentioned in the beginning, some guys just buy an inch small pulley and put on the alternator so it SPINS UP to a higher RPM and normally kicks in..

some of the smaller alternators are 15 mm .. (.591 inch)

Most of the mini Denso mainshafts are 15mm. If you wire the Alternator as a three wire, you don't have to worry about smaller pulleys and what not. It's two more wires you have to run. The IGN wire runs to the key switch ignition source, so when you turn the key in the ON position, you send 12 volts to the VR to turn it on. The "L" is the voltage sense circuit you can run to the Battery side of the Starter solenoid, or Starter motor itself. Run that parallell with the Alternator's output wire and connect them together at the Starter or Battery circuit. The voltage sense circuit will monitor current usage at the Starter. It will also keep the Battery "full". One thing people don't take into consideration with these one wire systems, is the voltage drop from the Alternator to the Starter motor or Battery circuit. Sometimes it could be up to a volt. Doesn't sound like much, but it you don't have the voltage sense circuit hooked up to monitor and current flow in the system, it can't send a signal to the Alternator to ramp up and "balance" the voltage in the whole system to 14.2 volts. Without the sense circuit, if you turn on the Headlights, worklamp, or you may have a sprayer hooked up to the Tractor, ignition system needs full power, with no sense circuit, your suckin' off the Battery and the Battery may not have enough reserve to sustain the draw on the system between the voltage drop, and the draw. You may have to put a 1 amp/50V diode in the IG circuit to eliminate run-on when the key is off.  Three wire. Three wire. That's the way to fly on a Tractor. No revvin' the crap outta' the engine to start the charging, no little pulleys, no low current in the system, no burnt points, or E.I. and no low Battery issues.
