A local repair shop instaled a altenator for me on a AC WD. He hooked up the hot wire to the negative termanal on the battery.
I hooked my Honda generator to it and charged the battery without knowing it was wired backwards. It acted up, and so I had the hired man use the other Honda generator to charge the battery thinking it was the generator.
Now neither generator works, as it keeps tripping the breakers.
So I was wondering if I should rewire the altenator to the positive side of the battery, and then drain the battery down to nothing--then charge the battery?
Any help would be great, I'm at my wits end.
Now the guy has nothing to his name, and perhaps a little slow. He is a great person, with lots of adverse things going on in his life. Any ideas on the genenerators would be helpful as well.
Thanks everyone in advance. If I do not respond right away, I'm running in circles the last few months, and often just do not have the time to get here. I certianly do not intend to be rude, and I'm very greatful to have this board to answer questions of all kinds.
