Start checking all you grounds first, then check any power connections. It could be a fusible link... Either way, get yourself a decent digital voltmeter and start checking your wiring. Btw not all new alternators are good working units when you buy them..... Another reason for the volt meter.

You can get them any where from 20 bucks on up. I paid 160 for mine but I do several different things with electronics. Make sure it has volts, ohms and I always like it to have the beep test (findsout if you havecontinuity from one side of the wire to the other.)
