...so, here we are.
1. The removed alternator tested fine. Autozone computer tester, and I watched, the guy seemed to know what he was doing and tested it twice.
2. I checked voltages again. For Brevity, I'll call battery voltage 12V instead of 12.49, etc. rest assured that on all my checks I have 10mv of resolution and I will note if measurements at one point vary by more then a mv or two.
3. Here are the voltages with the engine idling, Battery light out, and the alternator doesn't start charging if I rev it up:
From To Reading
Bat+ Bat- 12V
Bat- Engine 1 mv
Bat- Ground on chassis 1 mv
alt output gnd 12V
smaller, spade term on 12V minus 10 mv
alt (sense?) gnd
