![Question](https://www.rx7club.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Aren't the connectors the same or at least the plug is right??? I really dont want to blow another alternator. I did searching and help from arron and got the diagram but it looks like the way they connect is the same. I do experience the draining and today my internal regulator broke so the alt wash pushing 16.7 volts. I know this is all due to wiring but all my wires lookk correct. heres a pic of the diagram im goin off of and the s5 plug.

You guys are awesome thanks. Yea that alt is big mother... All i did to make it fit was put my duel pully and get a .5" bigger belt and i was set. Oh.. and d =ing my tmic a lil tiny bit for the B cable. Any ways.. I was just curious to what might of cuased my alt to go out if the wiring was fine. I mean i had the car for a year and the s5 alt went out, no biggy, so i go bigger and in ONE month it goes out and takes an optima with it... am i missing something or just a string of bad luck....????
