    Jump Starting MEP803A

    Well thank you! I I haven't looked in the front of the book yet. I did check the wiring of the alternator and mine certainly wouldn't survive that, the way it's hooked up now.

    Unlike an 831a. The alternator needs to be hooked to a battery or it will smoke. That is why battery selector switches tell you not to turn them off while the engine is running and they have make before break contacts.
