well first off I'm electricly challenged
Last night I noticed my truck wasn't charging I put a new alt on and still no chargey, what else do I need to check
Regulator was new 2 years ago
Battery is 4 months old and is fully charged now
Fuses are good
fusible links seem good
What else is there and how do I test

Double check the regulator. Unplug and jump across the terminals on the wire. If it charges like a sombitch, regulator is bad.
Next is check for power at the alternator. Should have it on 1 wire with key off, 3 with it on. 4th is the ground.
