It is basically a heavy duty contactor that is cutting the power generated from the alternator to the battery...

i tried disconnecting the field generating wire from ecu ... i belive its pin 17 on the 2nd or 3rd connector... and is made no difference ... the alternator woud still stay on...

i will post a ecu pinout ... maybe i had the wrong wire disconnect when i tried doing this..

ecu pinout added.. if anyone can point out the right wire to enable and disable the alternator .. i can get rid of my contactor heheh ! thanks!
