alternator not charging after relocation?
so i relocated my alternator to the top passenger side of my motor and now its not charging at all.. so i bought another alternator thinking that was the problem since the car has been sitting for several months. and after installing still no charge.. there is only 1 wire that goes to a 13mm stud on the back...correct? there is a plug but there are no wire in it... just wondering if anyone else has had this problem before.. any ideas or insight would help a bunch! thanks

thanks guys.. you where right.. im an idiot! haha the wire got ripped out of the plug and got lost deep down by the up pipe, but i found it had to pull the terminal out of the plug and solder the wire back in to it
