Ford 860. NAPA 10SI alternator quit charging. Replaced with new on 10SI (213-4011). Started motor and no charge. Amp gauge shows discharge when lights are turned on. Also, amp gauge shows a little jump towards (+) 3 times and does not try again until I shut down motor and disconnect battery. Installed new diode(1N4003), silver line towards alternator, just in case old one went bad. Same problems persists. #1 spade goes to diode then on up to terminal block. #2 spade goes to battery post on back of alternator.
I wired it using john in la "hundred series 12 volt conversion" instructions. Everything worked until this problem showed up.
