I thought a switch had a gap so when in the off position electrical current could not jump it.
So the diode adds resistance (a gate keeper of sorts) on the wire to spade post #1 thus the alternator will not be allowed to leak energy and jump the switch gap? This seems like a one way door the diode has allowing energy in the direction of the alternator and adding resistance in the other direction keeping the switch in the off position. Does the diode need to be oriented in a certain direction when wire?
I noticed the lower wiring diagram showed a fuse. Is this to keep failure from doing damage to my electrical system? Should I put one in? If so what type?
I also have a question about the amp meter. What is a amp and a volt? Where will the amp meter gauge move to show the alternator is work? Should I put a voltage meter on? My instrument panel only has a spot for the amp meter. What is the easy way to add the volt meter? Or is this where you just test the volts once in a while with a gauge?
I keep all I learn from this web site in a computer subdirectory (folder) in word files and jpegs so I can
reflect back if I need it later or pass it on. Guess you might say I translate what is learned to “newbe” understanding. Thank you for helping a “newbe”.
If you every need a song written I can do that. I have a small midi computer system which allows me compose songs and apply instrument sounds to them. It is a very modest setup, but works for my demo songs.

All these conditions can be signals that your unit is in need of a tune up. Ok, so what is involved in a tune up? You say, swap plugs and file the points....now tha
