Alternator Replacement
The issue I'm having is what to do with the yellow wire coming from the boat to the alternator? The previous alternator had a clip plug, but as the name implies...the 1 wire alternator only has the output terminal.
Where do I connect the yellow wire coming from the boat?

Re: Alternator Replacement
chances are that's an Energize/Field wire that was needed by the original Alt. You should be able to just cap and secure it with the new Alt because they are self energizing and regulated.
