I am a little confused. My alternator died so I bought a kit to rebuild it. However, after installing it, it still was not producing voltage so I replaced it with a 250 amp Powermaster unit from Summit. Here is why I'm confused. I thought my alternator was a CS144 but the wiring harness could not be plugged in. The CS130 alternator I purchased fit exactly as the original and the factory connector plugged into it as it should. Did you have to change the connector to be able to plug it into your CS144 unit as the connectors are a totally different shape?
