I have an Oceanis 45, 2014 with a Yanmar 4jh5e diesel with the Valeo 120 amp alternator. I just installed the Balmar smart regulator to the alternator and am trying to hook up the Balmar ARS 5 to the engine harness. Thought I had the color coding figured out, but when tested, the alternator is not turning on and charging the battery. The ARS 5 is on and self tests normally.
Who can help me with where to wire what between the alternator to the ARS 5 to the engine harness on a 2014 Yanmar 4JH5E with a Valeo 120 amp alternator.

Good question for me. I ran the engine for about 5 minutes with the engine rpm at 1500. Battery light and alarm ran the entire time and voltage at the engine panel and inside was 12.7-12.9 v. We started with 13.3 v

Sounds like it may be an oil pressure switch/connection problem.
