Start by downloading the TMs, and reading the basic operators manual(ends with -10).

I've had about 15 of them off of trucks and never seen a resistor. I have seen civilian trucks from the 60's-70's with similar 12 volt pumps used.

I found this with a search for "Alternator Wire 566". And several other posts/threads.

You could swap out the turn signal units and see if that solves the issue.

I've never seen a resistor added there before. Maybe someone used a 12 volt pump and added that resistor, in the past? I would remove it.

How many times have you done this? http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?117647-What-is-the-word-on-in-tank-fuel-pumps-these-days&highlight=fuel+pump+fuse If this is the same situation/failure, then you should continue your original thread(not start another one).

You need a fuse(the correct fuse), not a screw. The correct fuse has been discussed hundreds of times on the site. You need a slow blow, 3-5 amp fuse. Some are white and look like a resistor. Use an ohm meter to test yours.

Look at your new regulator. It just has 1/4" blade connections, right?

I think you can replace the regulator without removing all the goo(and connections).

The A2 is covered on the next page of that TM.

Still guessing on the truck model(no 5 tons in your sig line or title).

What truck are you working on? Removal should be covered in a -20/24 TM.

I would think calling it a Negative terminal(negative to the rear battery) would be less confusing. Just like the battery cables(are connected).

Beats getting banned!

There is a thread called "What do you pull/tow with your 5 ton".

If your alt went out before, maybe you have a bad battery or connection(short). I would not rule out the alternator just because you fixed it recently. If you did not fix whatever caused it to go bad the first time, I would expect the same to happen again(this time). The -20/24 level TM...

Did they come with instructions? To be quite honest, the dash lights will tell you if they are not charging and the volt meter has a hash mark that is easy to reference as well. Why complicate this?

Not if you want to monitor each battery and alternator separately(most accurately).

You have 2 12 volt alternators. There is no 24 volt charging to monitor.
