In regards to installing a rectifier on a 1993 115HP V4 115BET, does it matter which way the green wires go? The rectifier has terminals as follows when viewing from its installed position:
B (Black) G (Green1)
R (Red) GG (Green 2)
Here is an image of a unit like mine: Link
The rectifier part number is: 6G5-81960-A0
Who knows if the previous owner messed with the connections before I purchased the engine. I just want to ensure I connect it correctly as I understand you can easily damage the rectifier if wrong. My service manual doesn’t give any useful information regarding its connections.
The reason why I am changing my rectifier is my brand new tacho bounces randomly when the engine is running anywhere from 1000 to 6000 RPM while settling every so often. Also testing with 2 other gauges shows no tacho response at all.
I was told my rectifier is on the way out by my Yamaha dealership and I need to replace it. Voltage also seems higher than usual (15.5 volts).
