Crispy Alternator wire, I'm so krispy I'm so krispy my jeans 900, shoes 850 Options

[99GT]

So my battery light came on this morning. It would flash as the signals go off, every time I brake, etc.

I took my alternator to go check it passed everything.

So I cleaned this wire up a bit and it went away, but the wire is pretty crispy and crusted. I'm cleaned it up until I source out another wire harness.

Any inputs, suggestions would help.

Thanks.

A couple of things to think about before you get larger gauge.

1-It's not going to fit well in the harness [been there/done that]. You can easily run it outside of the harness as well, I just like the wires in the right places.
2-Make sure it will fit connectors that will fit the OEM locations. One ring terminal has to fit inside the fuse block, and I can't remember where the other end goes, but if it connects to a pin in a connector, you're not going to fit a larger gauge in the pin.

Every connection is a weakness for corrosion to exploit.
