OK, I've got this wiring harness:

I had the large black/orange wire connected to the BATT on the alternator, the orange/blue wire on the GRD post, the FLD post was empty, and the black/white wire on the STA post. After installing a new voltage regulator there was no improvement.

So I thought the wiring was hooked up wrong, and switched the red/blue wire to the FLD post. That didn't help. Do I have the correct wires on the right posts? Did I fry the new VR already? Or the new alternator?

I can't find a picture of the correct location of the wires on the alternator anywhere on the internet. ::help::

 
Black/orange to the BAT

orange/blue to FLD
