Alternator installation help needed

[vutony]

I have a 92 FB with a sr, theres this cable on the lower harness that im not sure where it should be connected to, accroding the FSM, its suppose to be grounded to the chassis body but if i remember rite its was connected to the alternator along with the engine harness to the positive side, here are some pics.

looks like a ground to me. if u are unsure and want to be sure just connect it to the alternator and then from that point get another cable and ground it to the chassis

i blew a couple of the 75a fuses already, trying to trace the problem, looking for a bad ground or not suppose to be grounded

there should be lil wire like that that connects to the alternator. you connect it with a bolt i believe its a 10mm and a 8mm

if you have aftermarket stereo... check your wires there

so there two cables u connect the nut to (8mm) which is ground

i only have one wire going to the small ground on ther alternator.not sure if this is your problem but im gunna put it out there anyway.i helped my friend with his swap,and when the motor was out he decided to tighten the stud that the fatter cable goes on.cause it looked loose.well,what he actually did was bottom it out and ground it,so when we went to turn the key,he blew that 75 amp fuse.make sure that stud isnt bottomed out.just my 2 cents.

problem solved, suppose to be grounded to the body
