never run a car with an alternator with the battery disconnected -- it will blow the diodes in the alternator because the current has nowhere to go.
That method of testing a charging system is so old school it dates from the days of generators, which Saab cars have not had since 1965.
AeroBaron most likely suffered a battery failure, they most commonly fail in extreme heat or cold.
