      Alternator

      I have a 67 Camaro and it has an internal reg alt, but it still has the external reg on the firewall. This morning my alt went out so I replaced it, but now I don't get battery voltage on my gauge when I turn the on. I get charging voltage, but not battery voltage. I just read an article on how to do the wiring to go from ext to int. Right now I get 14.5 volts of the pos terminal on the alternator and there is no blue wire going to the #1 terminal. I have the positive wire and then the jumper wire from the positive stud to the #2 position, but nothing is going to the #1 terminal and I still get 14.5 volts from the alternator at idle. At the ext reg, I took the blue wire and brown wire from the reg plug and spliced them together and the orange and white are capped off. My dilema is:

      1. Why am I getting 14.5 volts from the alt w/o a wire going to the #1 terminal of the regulator

      2. I can't seem to get voltage with the key on at the gauge

      3. I only have battery voltage at the junction block, the battery and the buss bar


      This morning before the alt went out, everything was operating PERFECTLY!!!
