New Balmar alternator now engine won’t turn over.

I installed a new Balmar alternator and after wiring everything up I’m missing two connections to engine panel.. I have two brown wires that I don’t know where they go. The engine is a SABB 2h and it won’t turn over using key. I
Haven’t been able to find a wiring diagram for the panel. Amy help would be appreciated.

Re: New Balmar alternator now engine won’t turn over.

Good morning, mkinney.

Check some of the images here to see if you can identify your setup:

Note that in Balmar wiring the brown wire(s) go to the ignition switch. Supplying voltage to them could solve your problem. I've got a Balmar, but a more specific answer will have to await a Balmar specialist on the forum. Good luck with it.
