What brand and model number is the alternator?

Hey guys,

I'm trying to wire up my A12 alternator. The motor came out of another 1200 and I found that the plug on my loom doesn't match the hole on the back of the alternater. My plug has 2 pins in a T shape configuration and the hole in the alternator has the 2 pins in a parallel configuration.

Has anybody encountered this when perhaps replacing an alternater?

I had a go at wiring it up by the wiring diagram. I have put the heavy white wire with red tracer on the pole "A" which has a little bolt on it.

I have earthed both of the black wires to pole "E".

then I have wired up pole F and N to the white with black and the yellow respectively.

Most importantly the alternator is not charging and I know it's in good nick because the motor and alternater just came out of a perferct running car.

Where do I start?
