Triumph Repair: alternator/wiring, lucas alternator, gauge wire


Question
I'm finishing up a 2 year off-body restoration, im at the stage of putting everything back to order but the dog bite the wires off leading away from the alternator. Its a Lucas alternator with the mustard/beige wires coming out of the harness. Were should i manually direct the wires?

Thank you

Answer
Earl,

The dog broke off the plastic connector holder?  Or cut the wires themselves?

There were several alternator setups used on the cars over the years.  Which year car do you have?

Typically though the connectors at the alternator were different sizes, with the larger gauge wire having a larger connector.



Cheers,

Jim
