I installed a kit to convert my regular internally wired to one wire and
they did mention that there are cases that required it to be energized
polarized what ever, by taking a hot 12volt lead and touching the two
small terminals that are not normally used. And wal la it should work,
mine worked the first time,  Idon't think I would go that route next
time. the reg internal one can be just jumpered I believe from the main
charge lead to the number two terminal and works fine.  I have been
running that combination on my not chevy econoline for a couple of years
and you don't need to rev the motor to get it to first charge at startup.
 ed Let me now if I am in error. Thanks Ed 53 Ad 3100 So.Calif.
