I recently installed a Denso 210-0106 alternator, rebuilt by Denso.
It worked great initially, putting out a steady 14.2 volts.
I only put about 20 to 30 miles on the car, fiddling around with other issues.
Drove it Sunday and noticed it's no longer charging. Volt meter reading 12.0 when running.
No factory wiring is being used, race car style.
My first thought is defective alternator.
Is it possible that I damaged it by wiring it incorrectly? The one thing I am not sure of is that I have the reference wire to the same bus as the charge wire.
