Bump. I could really use some help here.
The only thing that I have not checked, and will do it tonight, is the transmission ground strap.
The light on the instrument panel does not light when the key is on, but grounding it to either of the grounding wires that will connect to the alternator *does* make it light (there seem to be two ground wires; one goes straight to the top of the engine and the other is a part of the wiring bundle that includes the blue wire and the thick red wire from the battery).
Also, I do have continuity on the blue wire between the instrument light and the end that connects to the alternator, though I have not taken voltage on that wire at the alternator end. I did have 12V at the other end of that blue wire just past the bulb.
Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated. I really need to get this car running this weekend; this is basic transportation for me at the present time.
Funny, I work on my old Isuzu Trooper as well and when I decided to replace this conveniently-located alternator, I thought to myself "this is the first repair that will actually be easier on the 911 than the truck". Proven wrong...
