I have a 1969 Charger R/T where do you hook up your wire from the card to operate your electric choke..

blue wire from ballast or regulator

Or if you already have the electronic regulator conversion and a blue wire running up to dual field alt, then splice that wire in the middle... its the same source than the ballast though, just a closer point

Hello

I'm undertaking the same project and was wondering if I've correctly identified the two possible contact points?

The ballast connection in the pic will work but the cover on the voltage regulator has been installed upside down, the spade connector is keyed power (IGN) and the threaded terminal is the regulated field power (FLD).
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.

Thanks John!

I knew there was something wrong with what I was seeing because the wiring diagram in the service manual shows two wires on the IGN side and one on the FLD side.

Thanks again.
