To polarize the One Wire you :
a) remove the rubber plug on the internal voltage regular #1 and #2
terminals on the side of the case.
b) cut a small jumper wire and strip some of the insulation off the ends.
c) remove the rubber boot cover on the Main BAT Terminal on the
alternator........."you really need that cover if you don't have one
already".
d) touch one end of the jumper wire to the BAT terminal post on the
Alternator and the other end to Terminal #1 or #2. If it doesn't start
charging with touching it to terminal #1 then touch #2 and it should. Just
a quick input of current is all that's required.
e) re-install the plug on the internal voltage regulator terminals and the
boot cover on the BAT terminal and your done.
