Seems that my previous post had some errors. Also some reading from last night make no sense. with Blue and green wires disconnected from the alt both post read ground with test light connected to + side of battery. With key on blue wire has power and green stays ground. Both the green and blue wires are good to and from the VR.

Sorry Mike. I know your trying but I'm having trouble understanding what you did.

a. You disconnected the field wires from the alternator.

b. Then connected a test light from the battery positive to each field terminal on the alternator ?

c. Connected a test light between the blue wire's field connection and ground, and it lit with the key turn to run.

d. Somehow determined the field wires are 'good' What was the test or check ?
