My generator was getting flaky so I knew that I would have to replace it or rebuild it. Instead I decided to replace it with an alternator, in accordance with the directions from Dan Masters on the VTR website. The installation went well and the car does all kinds of things like lighting up the road at night and providing turn signals that flash more than once a month. The problem is that now the ignition light functions in reverse, it comes on when the car is off and turns off when the key is turned. I've disconnected the bulb to bypass the issue, but this is obviously not a repair. I've checked the wiring twice and even bypassed the harness with direct wires to see if there was a short, but no luck. The car works fine, the gauges all function properly and there is no drain on the battery with the bulb disconnected, but I don't know how to fix the problem. Anyone have any ideas?
