Just wanted to add some additional comments. Some folks just put a ring terminal on the red wire and put it on the same terminal as the battery connection, others may run a longer wire to the dash area to insure the remote area has full charging voltage. Sometimes to insure audio power amps for instance have a bit higher voltage. Either way, use a high quality voltmeter to check the alternator is charging at approximately 13.8 volts. Can vary a bit, but big differences would indicate a problem. Also insure the alternator light works properly, key on not running it should be lit. It should go out when engine is running. Good indicator belt drive to water pump is intact as well good luck, let us know how it turns out
