What problem are you having ? The big one ( red ) basically goes to the alternator , one small wire is the " exciter " , the alt. needs a power source to get going , one small wire is the voltage signal and there may be another but the small ones go to the ECM , that's the best I can tell you , U-TOOB has many videos on a variety of subjects ,.
