Any suggestions on creating a simple charging system from alt output to battery?

Thank You for confirming the idea... did you get the voltage regulator new or recycled? Any tips on wiring? The guages and other functions seem to work fine unless the battery is extremely low so I am guessing this could be a simple one wire in/out job with the regulator mounted to the body as ground. Thanks again!

Use a new Chrysler volt reg. I have to look up the wiring. It has to bolted to the fender for ground.

Interesting, thank you. This is apparently a generator powered by electronic radiation from the engine wiring?

Nope..It's an alternator driven by a belt just like all of them!! Pretty slick setup actually for $65.00. Guess you just have to see it work!! Too simple I suppose for some to fathom. Careful with that electronic radiation... while running those wires!! Google 'self exciting alternator'....Worth a look, or not.!!!

Yep, I have been bitten by loose plug wires before! I didn't read your first post correctly so thanks for the explanation.
