So this might have a little to do with OEM and modified but I figured with the upgraded alternator you guys could tell me if I'm an idiot or not.
I upgraded my alternator to a 136a but had some issues. Swapped out the plug then went to install. Bracket didnt fit. Not just the top with the bolt but the entire thing had to be grinded down. No biggie but started raises questions. Then I noticed that teh plug coming off the negative cable into the alternator had two wires sticking out the sides. My new alternator didnt have anywhere to attach these. Green/orange and green are the small wires coming out. So my question is what are these to and what damage is going to happen if they arent plugged in. I already started the XJ without any issues (none that werent there before hand) and drove it around. So im guessing its not life threatening. Thanks folks
