Alternator Wiring Diagram?

[kevnmcd]

I pulled my alternator off to have it repaired and forgot to mark the wires. :( Does anyone know or have a wiring diagram for a '95 Mercury 502 (I would think all mercruiser's would be the same for alternator wiring) that would tell me which wire goes to which pole on the back? I know where the + and - wires go, but there are two others...one purple and one ? that I need to know which terminal they go on. Thanks.

I don't think it matters...just put em anywhere.

Thanks CT. I will use this when I get a chance to put it back in the boat. :)
If this doesn't work, I will just use HH's method! :rolleyes:
