The alternator has one wire that plugs into it. In the wire loom however, it has two additional wires (black and green) that are hanging there. They were cut loose during a motor install. Are these wires supposed to go somewhere in order to properly charge the battery?
The car is '94 Z28.

I did eliminate the A/C so that does make sense.
Back to square one.

you should have the thick hot wire thats held onto the back by a nut and a connector from the harness for the regulator. seems like thoes wires for the regularot harness were cut and the battery isnt charging.

do you have 12 volts to the little wire with the key on? that little wire is ran to the instrument cluster, if the instrument cluster is pulled or you have aftermarket gauges it will not charge.
