I'm replacing my worn out Motorola alternator with the 55 amp API from Moyer. While doing this I thought I might as well remove the ammeter (I'll put it in the engine compartment and replace it with a voltmeter at the instrument panel).
I understand wiring from the alternator output to the + terminal on the starter solenoid, but I have 2 questions:
1. What happens to the orange wire going to the battery terminal on the igntion switch? If I remove the orange wire won't it cut off my main distribution panel?
Does current need to be supplied to the battery terminal on the ignition switch?
2. Removing the orange wire will cut off my main distribution panel, right? Where's the best place from which to feed the main distribution panel? Should I just run a properly sized wire from the battery switch "out" to the panel?
