Carl, I wish I could tell you for sure what lower harness it is, but the wiring conversion was done "professionally" years back. If I cannot figure this out, I will likely remove the lower harness and go through it, like I did the upper harness. R33 wiring diagrams seem to be difficult to come by. There is another thread on here where another member is having the same exact problem, which you have commented on as well. I have yet to hear if he has resolved the problem yet. My suspicions are leading to the White/Red wire on the plug on the side of the alternator. This suspicion comes from this post I found.....
"the larger one (in your case aqua) in that plug goes to pos 12 v, this one i'd add a fuse. if i remember the pic i couldn't see the size fuse.
the smaller wire (white/red) goes to the change bulb wire in the gauge cluster. it is the excite wire if you don't hook this up you will need to add a resister to drop the voltage going to the alternator to less than 6 volts. if you power this wire at 6 volts your alt will charge at 15 volts. also if you just plain dont hook this wire up, your alt will not charge.
hope that helps. my experience... i wired up my whole 240 from scratch and everything works."
This is the link to other members problem, exactly the same
