I converted my system to the ERA diagram without lite .I disconnected fused power on all the time from "A"I removed the "S" wire from just outside the regulater plug to the Stater terminal completely.I disconnected the ignition switched power from "I" and connected it to "A" and "S" wires.So "I" is dead."A" & "S" are switched with the ignition switch.I tested and with master switches on ,power to CDI memory disconnected, and all other switches off no connection between ground cable and neg battery terminal.Great no connection with ohm meter No current leak.. Hooked up ground cable to battery. I turned on the ignition switch "boink" What was that? Started the engine .not chargeing.Started testing, lets remove alt and reg and have both checked with the alt repair shop.The regulater now has something rolling round inside.That's probably what made the strange noise. Alt repairer said the diagram is right and the regulater must have had something wrong.So I bought a new voltage regulater .Had the Alt tested with the connections in the diagram,it worked. Then had regulater incorperated ,nothing. Crap a bad voltage regulater. I'll check it tommorow.
