Chris,
I just went to the cellar and checked my TR 250's alternator. Here
is the run-down... From the engine side going out I have: 1) a fat black
wire which goes to ground, via the coil mounting bracket bolt; 2) a fat
brown wire with a white stripe that goes into the harness and problably
carries the output electricity to the batt.; 3&4) are two, yes two
thin brown wires arranged vertically one upon another. The topmost of
these is a thin (approx. 14 gauage) brown wire with a green stipe.The
next down is a thin wire of the same guage and is colored brown with
a yellow stripe. These thin wires also disapear into the harness.
I forgot to mention that the two thin wires connect with the alter-
nator with a separate plug than the two fat wires do. Also the thin
brown/green stripe wire connects to a terminal near the marks F -
on the black plastic housing of the alternator.
By careful reading of your Haynes manual and checks with a volt/ohms
meter (VOM) you should should be able to find the solution to this
problem. If however, you can't, write back and we'll try to figure it
out.
