I took a 2G alternator off and installed a GM 1 wire, I am told the one wire is all I need to hook up. I did and I can't tell if the volt meter is working or not, there is no movement. Plus I installed dual electric fans with a new temperature sensor, it looked okay on the temperature gauge except it shows temperature way before it should have and when I throttled up the gauge pegged out on hot. Not sure the sensor might be defective or it got an overload of amps? Should there be another wire off the alternator to the voltmeter? There is a inline fuse between the alternator and battery, am I getting feed back from the one wire. 140amp alternator, 200amp fuse, installed on a 1986 F-150 with a 5.8L. There is a two prong plug with a rubber cap on it that the vendor said I didn't need to use.
