The plug in pigtail connector came off my 73 alternator wiring:
I have a Black/White  and a Brown. Anyone know which one goes on the #1 and which one on #2 terminal of alternator?

TIA
Ray

The Blk/wht wire goes to terminal 2 & the ammeter & horn relay. The Brn wire goes to terminal 1 to a resistor & the ignition switch.

Thanks Alan. Thats the way i had them. But the diagram has the terminals marked V & L and of course the pigtail wires were red and white. Had to trace them back. Thanks again Ray
