Hi it is us again with a new issue. We had changed out our original alternator that had an external regulator with a Delco-Remy 40SI Part no. 8600279 that has an internal regulator in 2011. It has worked well up until this last year. We had disconnected the external regulator when we installed the new one and wire tied up the wires leaving the old external regulator in place. That had not been the problem with the old alternator, it was the bearings squealing all the time. Rebuilt it twice but still went bad.

Our Delco is still putting out but not charging our system because we think it is a faulty internal regulator. We are wondering if we can by-pass the internal regulator on this alternator and wire it back into the original external regulator? If so, does any one have a wiring diagram of how that would be accomplished?

Thanks, any suggestions would be appreciated.
