Yup. That’s the terminal that’s tied to the starter.

If your bus is still 6 volt, to be totally correct it would have had this 50 amp generator with 211 part number and the matching 50 amp Bosch voltage regulator.

The 50 amp 6 volt regulator can be somewhat difficult to find. Mine works fine but I found an nos unit to have as a spare.

My bus also came with an 88 amp hour battery as I'm sure yours would have too. I think all the flipseats had this set up.

Here's a couple more pictures of my voltage regulator and where everything goes:

This is the factory 50A regulator so I'm not sure if the terminals are different than yours? Yours has the mounting "feet" 90 degrees from where mine are.

I unscrewed the regulator and took these pics just for you Wink

Hope this helps!

I -think- I saw the 211 part number on the generator. And yes, it’s still 6v. No short term plans to go 12... maybe way down the road.

Looks like on the regulator, aside from the orientation, everything matches up. It seems like an older, correct replacement. I’m still not sure why there is a capacitor / thing-a-ma-jig in line with the socket on mine.
