So after a rebuild passenger side alternator, I still have no luck. When I hook up the isolated ground to the hot block on the firewall it arcs when I hook the ground battery cable. So when I take the hot wire from the rear battery to the hot block on the drivers side off, and hook up the...

So after a lot of learning and reading and tracing wires, Here is what I have come up with and it would be great if someone could shed some light. As far as I can tell I have gotten everything back to factory EXCEPT the red and white wire that goes from the isolated ground on gen 2 to the hot...

Yes sir.

No clue why I say smoke. That's what I'd like to know. It's not an official gp relay. I replaced it a few months ago. I was just making sure I had the charging system right bc I didn't see smoke until I hooked up the red and white wire from passenger side alternator to the 12v hot block.

Anyone?

the wiring i did today was identical to this. When hooked it up, I fried the GP relay and saw smoke. Before that, I didn't put the red and white wire from the isolated ground post to the 12v block on the drivers side and it was fine as far as I could tell. (it probably wasn't charging or...

also is this diagram correct?

does anyone have a diagram or write up on what voltage you have at certain locations under certain conditions? I'm trying to test the new wires I ran today so I don't fry anything before I go and drive it. Thanks

Well tomorrow is the big day. The blazer should be back on 24v. I'm so pumped. Fingers crossed!

Recently my transmission will not shift out of 2nd until about 40 mph. It will shift out if 1st around 15-20 mph. If I'm running about 35 and it's not shifting I can manually put it into 2nd and back into drive and then it will shift into 3rd and 35 mph but other than that it requires being...

ok. thanks so much. I'm also thinking about doing a manual glow plug switch since its not too hard.

So much next question is, is it supposed to be there when i do the bypass?

I plan on doing your resistor bypass method. What is that yellow looking thing you circled in the second picture? Also, where does that blue/ red wire with that yellow looking thing go to? I can't follow the wire very easily. Thanks

Scratch that. Found several right ups on that.

So how would I go about doing that? Run a hot wire from the front battery straight to the GP relay? Im a newb to wiring, especially these 24v systems.

Anybody have advice? I'm in the middle of using some of the charging system diagrams people have posted on here to help me go back to 24v system. What I've learned is my wires are moved quite a bit. My next question is, how do i go about re-installing the nonexistent glow plug ballast resistor...

Here is what I'm working with. I'm almost 100% sure it's correct but if it's correct wouldn't be run normal?

Oh ok. I see. I actually just replaced the passenger side alternator a few days ago and the batteries will hold a charge forever if it's just sitting but they die when it's actually running.

I have all the pictures of the motor. What would you like me to post a picture of?

Marcus: Thanks! I don't think I have a draw issue. (but I could be wrong) Yes my horn does work. How would you test whether or not you have a drain? I know how to on a normal single battery 12v system. As far as the Roscommon conversion goes, I think everything was done correctly. What puzzles...
