  • Starter and alternator help

    So I bought a pre 600 for a little more than I should've. She's a fire victim. No significant damage it seems other than a wiring harness and plastic. Hopefully the pcm is ok housing looks like it felt the flames fingers crossed. Anyways my question pertains to the starter and alternator. Their wiring got burnt up. Now my initial answer is just by some new ones and go on about my business. However in the interest of pinching pennies I was wondering could I re wire them? The starter would be quite simple. The alternator however.... Idk which wire would feed what...I know there's a clip from factory but mine is obviously melted away...any thoughts?

    Um, I would probably open them up and look for internal damage before deciding to reuse them. If they both look okay, then just get an ebay wiring harness.

      PCM? You mean ignition box?? I would buy a loom, install and go from there.

          If the alt wires are burnt, I would just replace it or risk future failure. Which may have been the reason for the fire. Over volting the loom.
