here you go bud.

Looks like the 89 has 2 signals and a Power. used the bolts for ground.
Where as the 96 has 2 signals, a power and a main ground.

I would ground it to the engine and the frame to get a good all around ground point for the best charging and least amount of feedback. just my thoughts. but look for yourself before going with my guess lol

96 xj chargin wiring diagram

89 Renix **** lol

I hate wiring... so according to that HO alt should have a green & a green/org. The renix should have a yellow & "tan". So which goes to which?

& I agree grounding to the frame & block!

ok so this look like the same one the guy on naxja used, but only goes to 90amps (per the notes) isnt this gonna limit the amps to where I was with the renix alt.????
