another not charging thread

Climate controls ? Which harness connector?
Whatever you disconnected must have some current through it going somewhere.

The larger of the two harnesses on the back of the climate controls (heat, cool, defrost, etc.), not the harness that controls fan speed.

I'd start with the tests outlined in post #14

Then charge the battery
After its charged, start the car and do the same tests with the probes reversed.
Test immediately, and then after a few minutes.

Then you'll know if there is resistance in either or both feed to the main splice.

Only after that would I move on to exploring resistance in the switch, or ignition, and field circuits.

Alright, I'll get to that when I can.
Out of curiosity, do you guys have a preference in brand and condition of alternator? By condition I mean new vs re manufactured.
