On the back of the alt I have the pos+ lug and 2 other posts marked with a 1(R) and 2 (F)
The idiot light (old fashioned globe 2w) goes to the number 1 (R) the light comes on with the IGN is on and goes out when the car is started.
The other post the is splice back to the pos+ lug. I had a feeling the globe I have is not enough watts, you are saying 6w globe. As I suggested would the resistor 15ohm 10w help?

Thanks
