Hey guys just after a little help. Ive got a microtech going in my vl with a stand alone loom and i need to know how to wire up the alternator for the dash light. As the new loom doesn't have the two pin plug like the factory loom does

the microtech wont have anything to do with the alternator wiring. the thicker wire out of the 2 pin plug goes to the battery and the thinner one goes to the light on the dash. if you get really stuck ill have a look at mine and let you know which one it is on the black/blue plug behind the blower fan

Ive got the charge wire on the back off the alternator connects on a 10mm nut going to the battery. But that oval 2 pin plug on the alternator is what im not to sure off. Can take a pic if that helps
