All that (D-) brown wire does is to ensure a good, common connection between the generator and the regulator. None of the 6V systems had a ground between the two. Bonding strap, and star washers under the regulator mounting screws should do the trick. Otherwise, if for some reason you are into the harness area, pull another wire. -- Russ Wolfe '66 FB MT '71 FB AT '65 Bug (not running) russw@classicvw.org http://www.classicvw.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
