Hoping someone can give me some info on alternator wiring. I had the alternator in my series 3 replaced with an 80 amp Mitsubishi alternator. It works fine but I want to rewire the whole car as it is really untidy.
I am wondering if I need the voltage regulator or does the alternator have an internal regulator.
The alternator has an output terminal and a 4 pin socket of which 3 pins are currently used, F,E and N.
The regulator is not original. It has a 6 pin connector
