[6pack] !971 Alternator issues

[Colin Grimes]

The dreaded prince of darkness strikes again
I would appreciate input to solve
 I had a major short in the steering column (now repaired).this resulted in
the brake warning light coming on whilst running 2500rpm.
 I asume the regulator is defective.
The original regulator had two wires (Green and Yellow) to the brush
connections and  the case bolted to the frame of the alternator,
I have a replacement with  a yellow wire to connect to the Brush box ? , a
black wire with a larger hole , does this connect to the alternator frame .
the case of the unit is isolated in
slots on the brush box ?
I read of battery sensing etc .
any help appreciated
Colin
