Jeff,

Mine has:

Wiring harness yellow to pigtail red.
Wiring harness brown to pigtail black.
Wiring harness green to alternator B+

Maybe someone will enlighten me, but from staring at the wiring diagrams, I don't see that it matters one bit whether the yellow wiring harness wire goes to the red or to the black wire on the new alternator pigtail. Same goes for the brown wire on the wiring harness.

Regardless, mine is set-up as above and it works.

Yellow Renault wire to red Enterprise wire on new plug
Brown Renault wire to black Enterprise wire on new plug
Battery wire on post nearest Enterprise plug
Ground wire to one of the alternator mounting bolts (NOT to any post on rear of alternator)

The post furthest from the Enterprise plug is not used

Note...there are 3 different belts now...

Old Renault Alt = Napa 25-060 427
New Bosh w/ round top bracket = Napa 25-060 410 (longer)
Old (new)Bosh with square top bracket (when 1st introduced) = 25-060 408 (shorter)
