Features

  • Specific to 24-volt electrical system
  • Connects voltage regulator to dashboard instruments
  • For Hotchkiss M201 (1955-1967)
  • Replacement part for original wiring
  • Conforms to NATO 24V specification

★ Correct wiring is essential for a reliably functioning 24-volt charging system on the M201.

Application

For Hotchkiss M201 jeeps (production years 1955-1967). The M201 was built by Hotchkiss in France under licence from Willys-Overland and was fitted with a 24-volt electrical system conforming to NATO specifications, rather than the original 6-volt system of the Willys MB/Ford GPW.

Installation notes

Runs from the voltage regulator (mounted on the firewall or wing in the engine compartment) to the ammeter and possibly the filterette under the dashboard. Ensure correct connection to terminal 'B' of the regulator. The M201 used Marchal or Paris-Rhône regulators with specific connection configuration.

Compatibility

Only suitable for Hotchkiss M201 with original 24-volt system. NOT compatible with 6-volt Willys MB/Ford GPW, 12-volt conversions, or Hotchkiss JH-101/JH-102 civilian models (which had different electrical systems). Early M201s (1955) and later models used the same 24V system.

Historical context

The Hotchkiss M201 was produced from 1955 to 1967 for the French Army. One of the main modifications compared to the original Willys MB was the change to a 24-volt electrical system with dual batteries, conforming to the NATO standard of the time.
