Could the AMP Meter still be bad? it moves when you put the key on and whan you put the lights on , i just want to eliminate the AMP gauge , since it move sit is working right? , the Alternator charges on the machine and test fine (I wanted to eliminate too) all wires I have test and connections are clean and seem to have complete curcuits , I was wondering if I can drive the car 25 miles on just the battery with no lights on and the alt not charging , the battery has a full charge?

With the key on I get power to the big alt wire (12.66 volts) on the voltage reg wire I get a bit less than 12 volts , I cleaned the connections , still no charging.
