for idiot light setup the generator lamp is a brown wire.....isn't that the brown wire coming from the voltage regulator? If that's the case why would I run a wire from the number 1 spot on the cluster plug to the alternator when I could just move the brown plug from 8 spot to the 1 spot, or just run a wire from the L wire on the alternator plug to the 1 spot on the cluster plug and eliminate the blue and white wires at the alternator from the factory plug..........I have the 8ga wire to run to the battery and the temp sending unit for gauges, but I haven't found anyone who changed idiot lights to gauges and did the alternator upgrade. I don't have a problem wiring it like gmc pauls site says but just wanted to make sure I used the L wire to run to the gauge and eliminate the factory wires and add a resistor
