Alright I got the alt off. I read continuity from the case to the fld terminal and from the grd terminal to the case. I also read continuity from the fld terminal to the grd termimal. One thing I am not sure of is the grd termimal. That termimal had the green wire on it and would always read continuity to the case because it is screwed to the case. I am confused which readings I should have continuity on. At this point all I know is I have continuity on everything. As of now I didn't take the alt apart to look inside. Is that my next step and if so what termimal to what should I not read comtinuity on. Thanks for all your help.
