Thanks Jerry and Kevin. Good points. Update on my efforts. I have the original equipment with the voltage regulator. When I measure the resistance with the positive lead on the positive post and negative lead to chassis ground, I read approximately 20 ohms. If I reverse the leads the resistance goes way up. I removed the alternator and now I measure around 30K ohms. I pulled all the fuses one at a time with no change. I disconnected the connector to the regulator and the resistance shows an open. Is it normal to have 30K ohms across the regulator. UPDATE went to parts store and ordered new regulator, keeping my fingers crossed.
