>>Is there anything else I should check before I pull it back off to take to the rebuilder? (I believe that they replaced everything that could be replaced -- brushes, bearings, regulator, etc.) <<

Yup, there is.

On the back of the alternator thre is another connection. It is the thin red wire which comes up out of the under-the-engine harness, along with the black wire to the oil pressure sensor.

The battery light being on means that light is getting a ground somewhere, but not the right place. Check that wire connection on the alternator. Do any other warning light remain on? Parking Brake? Brake Failure?

Good Luck,

Bob
