thanks but this is not what i saw, it was how to wire or install a wire into a vw alt. that does not have a w term in/ on it like some do .
I belive it was hooked into one of the recifyer bridges or like that.

Yeah, I think its was a link to Vortex. It showed how to add a wire off of one of the diode tree leads.
