      So I have this blue wire. And a Yellow wire. but where do they go on the generator? I was informed the one wire goes on the big terminal, and one on the little terminal. Both terminals are the same. There is an "F" next to the left pin and an "A" next to the right pin. Which color wire goes where or does it not make a difference?

        Look closer, one is a #10-32 thread and the other is a #8-32 thread. Nevertheless, they are:

        "A" terminal is 10-32, "Armature" and gets the yellow wire.
        "F" terminal is 8-32, "Field" and gets the blue wire.

        Hope this clears it up.

            Boy they sure look the same.
            Thank you Frank. That clears it up.
