Wiring – 12V generator

[Donna Bryant]

I have begun to rewire with a universal harness that I

purchased from Mid America Motorworks.

The same one here:

I do have the 12V generator, so I am following the

diagram at the bottom as far as the 10 gauge red wire, to

the voltage regulator and then on to the starter. Do I

also connect the 12 gauge red wire to the starter, as in

the main diagram for the 6 volt regulator? Also, on the

other end of the harness there is the 10 gauge red, 12

gauge red and 12 gauge black wires – to be connected to

the ignition switch. What wire to what position on the

back of the ignition switch? There are 4 post St., Acc.,

Bat, Ign. Any and all help is appreciated.

Found the answers over at the Samba site. But stay tuned –

I’m sure there will be more.

Go slow and use a tester.
