You should have one with a tracer, could be red but I have a black and white photo (Haynes manual).
Anyway looking from the back of the alternator, it is tracer left and other no tracer on the right. A13N129
If this does not help I will look at mine Tomorrow and let you know without the black and white issue. |

no, the espace never had the F7R.
If its a 1990 then its the J7R, same as the 2.0 R21 |

the wires are 2 different sizes so you should only need to look to get them the right way round.
Also the wiring looms are different colours on the cars dependign on which wire they decided to use that day. |
