he is close but no cigar. be sure to check the pigtail connector behind the alternator.
here's a brief explanation:
the upper portion of the pigtail is your 12V which trigger's the alternator's F terminal on pre-89 alternators. in other words, when the key is in ON ignition, it sends signal to the alternator to start charging
the lower portion controls the gauges in your dash such as tach, water temp, voltage and gas along with dummy lights

Fuses, then alternator. Check the simple stuff first.
Because, if you monkey with the alternator and something else comes up, you haven't fixed the first problem (the fuses) and now have something else to confound the evidence.
