this failure of the alternator i've only seen leave the light in the dash on after the car is off. you have a crossfeed from that circuit to the ignition circuit. now i'm thinking there are 2 problems. it never occured to me the alternator should not be feeding voltage to the red wire while the car is off.

with the key off and the red wire unplugged, is there voltage on the wire? is there voltage on the terminal on the alternator? man, this is good. lemme know, chuck.
