Voltage regulator

I installed an electronic voltage regulator some time ago, only to find out it is not perfoming correctly. If I hook the wires on the new pigtail color for color, Blue to blue and green to green I get no charge at all. If I reverse these colors blue to green and green to blue, I get an overcharging situation. In this set up I get almost 15 volts at the battery. I have checked the wiring with my meter and it all checks out according to the schematic I found with a search on this site. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

can you try your old regulator to see if you have a bad one

did you also change to a two brush alternator ?? electronic regulators and dual brush alternators go together like peanut butter and jelly. and just because it's electronic does not mean it can fail as well.replace the easy part first, the regulator. they are cheap so don't cheap out with a used one.

Thanks for all the information guys! I had a two field alternator on it, along with the regulator to go with it. I tested all the wires for continuity according to the schematic. There had to be something wrong along the line somewhere. I just went ahead and got the automotive wire and the fusible link needed and rewired the whole system. It works like a charm now.
