    Case 580B Wiring Harness Rebuild

    Case 580B Wiring Harness Rebuild

    I'm fed up with cracked insulation, busted connectors and broken wire gremlins. I'm going to rewire! Ah ... by any chance ... does anybody have a picture of their wiring harness rebuild?

    Case 580B _ Alternator NOT ... Alternating

    Good point! I just watched a video where the guy said all 10Si parts were testable with a Fluke except the regulator. Since the tab is broken off the regulator, that test kind of solves itself. Now that im curious I think im going to clean this alternator up inside, solder a pigtail or...

    Case 580B _ Alternator NOT ... Alternating
