Re: single wire alternator

I am doing a little hijacking on this thread as I did not want to start a new one but maybe I need to. I have a one wire alternator on my brothers car that I am trying to figure out. It was not showing any charging at the battery so I followed the big red wire on the back to find it disconnected. It had come loose from the not so good squishing of the terminal and not being crimped. I did not have my soldering iron with me and did have my voltage meter. I tested the rear lug and it showed a massive 62 ish volts. Could this be right? I am not connecting that wire before much further testing.
