My 88 300ce went into the body shop for some work, and I had them install euros since the passenger headlight was destroyed by the accident. Apparently they disconnected the battery when they did their work. After picking the car up, it died after about 1-1/2 hours of mostly highway driving, and I had to be towed home. I had the battery recharged and the car starts & drives fine, but the battery is not getting enough voltage back from the alternator. I had checked the battery not so long ago and it was showing a little over 14 volts while the engine was running and now it is about 11, and the Autozone meter read "diode ".

I noticed that in front of the battery there is a bridge on which the alternator leads and the positive battery lead are
attached. Since I like to make sure the little things are not the problem, could someone please describe the correct connnections at this "bridge". Any other little things to check before springing for the alternator and voltage regulator? Thanks as always.
