Alternator Good Wire for Slee Dual Battery Setup? (1 Viewer)

[aamiggia]

I've searched, but to no avail.

I'm installing a dual battery setup a la Slee wiring diagram, but I'm not sure where is the best place to take the "alternator good" signal from. Please help identifying the actual wire (color and location) and if I should fuse it.

1997 LX450 USDM

Thanks.

There are 3 wires (aside from the main cable to the battery). They are yellow, blue black, and black. I know that they are supposed to be ignition, battery constant, and combination meter, but I'm not sure in what order. The black wire is thicker gauge then the rest.

Anyone with a LX450 wiring diagram?

The yellow/blue is the one that goes back to the cluster to light up the lamp if the alternator isn't working correctly. It's the one that's on the side of the alternator vs the back.

George has a write up on a dual battery install on his website at: http://www.george4wd.taskled.com/auxbat.html
Here's the pic of where he picks up the alternator good signal: http://www.george4wd.taskled.com/auxbat/altgood.jpg

Awesome, that's exactly what I needed. George picks up the Daytime Running Lights (DRL) to pickup the alternator good signal. I noticed this in some wiring diagrams posted on the internet.

Thanks for your help.
