did you ever hear back on the location of the orange wire for the passenfger alt? in the picture #7 its trails off picture to the top...there are only 2 posts, a tach pin and a connector plug as an option so was it also left off? curious as I am having alittle wire problem myself after a rebuild. getting close though after this site saved me!

The orange wire attaches to the positive terminal of the passenger alternator. It is used for the STC/ICE diagnostic post.

You can see the wires for the diagnostic system in the wiring diagrams for the diagnostic system.

The wiring diagrams in the appendix of the tech manuals have a wealth of information.

The round cylinder item is a capasitor/noise suppersor for the military radios. The trucks can standard with them as radios where added later. Most of the trucks have had the capasitor removed over the years.

There is no tachometer on my M1009. What is the purpose of Tach connection on CUCV Alternators?:cookoo:

Goes to the STE / ICE diagnostic port under the dash. Some on here have been able to use it to drive a tach.
