so my car came without the alternator wired up, and for the hell of me I cant work which wires go where, so can someone post a picture of the back of an a15 alternator, or a wirng diagram picture fot the back of the alternator ( I got the normal wiring diagram but that dont help) what colour wire goes to the big white connector? what colour wire goes into the bolt at the top? same with the bottom... any otherr wires I have missed?

have u checked out tha tech section maybe that might have a diagram!

Couldn't find anything, if you can tell me where ;)

Seems to be quite a difficult task getting this part setup, but hey, i'll get it all working one day. Just need to know what wires go where. Anyone with A12->A15 take a pic of have a look for me please...

The big wire goes straight to battery +
The small wire goes to the voltage regulator
The other wire goes to the electric choke

wiring at the end of the loom where it goes onto the alternator is..

1x large white/red wire
1x small white/red wire
1x small black wire
1x small white/blue wire
1x small white wire

where on the actual alternator do these connect up ?

Dems, what kind of car do you have? Your loom doesn't sound like a 1200.

The 1972 1200 had this wiring for the alternator:
A - White (connects to battery via main fuse)
F - White/Black (F on voltage regulator)
N - Yellow (N on voltage regulator)
E - Black (ground/earth)

The "A15" alternator you have may be an internal-regulator model with these marks:
A - main fuse
L - choke relay
S- connects to A
E - earth

I HAVE JUST BEEN OUT AND LOOKED AT MY CARS ALLNINE OF THEM THATS RIGHT NINE.THE BIG RED./WHITE GOES TO A MARKED ON ALTERNATOR THE SMALL RED WHITE GOES TO N MARKED ON ALTERNATOR THE SMALL BLACK GOES TO EARTH. THE WHITE/BLUE GOES TO F MARKED ON ALTERNATOR THE SMALL WHITE WIRE GOES TO THE HEAD TEMP SENSOR TRY THIS IM SURE IT WILL WORK
