Generator ground

Generator ground

Originally the generator was grounded through the body of the generator, through the bracket, to the engine block. Painted generator bodies can insulate the generator and prevent this necessary grounding point. This short wire easily solves the problem.

Magneti Marelli generators: Secure the 6 mm ring terminal under the top nut at the rear of the generator. Secure the 8 mm ring terminal at the frame grounding point inside the U channel (where the cable splitter is attached).

Bosch generators: Secure the 6 mm ring terminal under the 6 mm bolt located on the left side of the generator body. Secure the 8 mm ring terminal at the frame grounding point inside the U channel (where the cable splitter is attached).
