Hmmm. The DUVAC is the larger, front-most unit. The other part is the external regulator. Are we talking about the big or small box? Either way, you can probably still use the regulator to control the existing alternator. The regulator is designed to accept 2 different input voltages and not let...
This mod is exactly what the wire switching does, except you use the Leece-Neville alternator as a dedicated 12V supply, instead of using a regular Delco alternator. Much less work.
How exactly did you "fry" the DUVAC doing the "wire switch thing"??? I assume you mean you switched the front and...
Try switching the wires. The wiring update was a voltage sensing fix that didn't really fix the problem. Even without the wiring update, it might work. It has a been a while since I messed with this system, so I would have to research it again to make sure, but switching the wires on the DUVAC...
The diode is keeping 24V from feeding back to the 12V fuse block, but having no diode will prevent feedback as well. I think that wire was supposed to give the DUVAC unit power, but they didn't work properly anyway, so I don't think you will have a problem without it.
If you don't care about...
