i have a 77 cutlass that the previous owner had cut some wiring on. needed to know if any one knows which wires go to the alternator. any pictures or wiring schematics would be great help

Thanks
ERIC

from one new guy to another, welcome to the site, Eric! Still looking for some help with this issue? Perhaps you could tell me where the wires were cut and I can help you trace them from there.

When I get home tonight, I'll take a look. Even though mine's a Chevy, it should be the same.

any one find anything out for me?

I looked around & found two red wires & a dark brown wire going to my alternator. I was going to take a second look around the bay before saying anything for sure though. The two red wires, one should be larger than the other. I'm sorry I got tied up this weekend, but I'll try to get a picture of anything that I find.
