MX5 dash lights , electrical issue
Guys, any electrical gurus out there?
My mk2 MX5 now has the super charger fitted and megasquirt2 Ecu . Those also in the know know that you have to fit a mk1 alternator as it is self regulating as the mk2 alternator is regulated via the Ecu (which has now been removed to fit the mega squirt) All works fine , however I do not any longer have the battery charge light on the dash which should go off after a few seconds . Is there a way around this ? As the mot man may wish to see it. Many thanks |
Could I fit a volt meter dial in the absence of the charge light ?

The lack of a charge light isn't an mot fail. You could do a bit of wiring to get the light working, but a voltmeter is much better solution

I always have both, as I'll see a light more quickly than the gauge hovering around 12v instead of 14+......

On most alternators the lamp feed energises the alternator I think.
|
Just out of interest, the yellow wire coming out of the alternator...where does that go?
