Andy - give Mark H a call, he knows. Im sure one of them is left unconnected and the other takes a feed from the main live to battery. There is a
sensor inside the alternator that tries to keep the charging voltage stable irrespective of revs etc.
Ill try and take a look at mine later as well.

A=Ignition connection
B=Lamp
C=Derrr to battery (heavy charging lead)
Standard Jap wiring I think
Cheers,
Bob

Ah yes - B charge lamp. I didnt have to connect this cos DD2 has current sensing built in. If you are running a std dash config you will run this to
the charge light on dash.
I connected A to C to feed the built in current sensor circuit. Mark wil be able to confirm for sure.
