Seems like my starting problem is a DPO wiring issue. Charged the battery, and car starts fine. Had the alternator (Delco) tested, and it is okay. Looked at the wiring, and compared it to some docume

Drew, the TR4 originally had a generator, which has considerably different wiring than your alternator. The original control box is unneeded, unless you want to keep it for appearance or as a juncti

<<BATT is the output, and needs to be wired to the battery. Personally, I like to run it through the ammeter on the dash, so the ammeter correctly still indicates battery charge, but opinions vary o

You're welcome to your opinion, Ed, but I have run the configuration I recommend for almost 30 years on two different TR3As and been very happy with the results. I far prefer to have properly workin

Thanks all for the advice. I'm making a little progress, and getting my head wrapped around the issues a little better. Turns out the instructions the PO included were an article from the VTR website

Drew, I'd say that probably means there's a bad connection somewhere. Does the red light still come on with the key ? It's important, some alternators will not work unless the circuit through the li

The red light came on bright with the key. After the strange flashy thing, it went to a dull red. Didn't try either of these. That'll be my fun for this evening. :-) I'm also going to try running the
