Hello all. Took my starter out to charge it up. When I put it back one of the smaller wires from the alternator had snapped (I think the blue one is the exciter, it was the other one).
I've fixed the wire and the oil light is flashing and the fuel and oil guages are not working. I redid the fix and same problem.
I've read a few posts and a bit in the wiki about swapping the voltage regulator behind the dash, cleaning grounds, twisting fuses to break any corrosion etc.
Before changing lots of things is there a logical order I should troubleshoot this? Any help appreciated.
Thanks

This is somewhat confusing. You can't charge a starter motor.
