Thanks! That helps me understand what is going on a little better. It also makes me wonder why they set it up like they did. Seems like they could have eliminated a connector and run the rear fuse box right off of the battery. It is what it is.

Now to find the front junction (#29 Cable Connector) and lift the wire going to the starter & alternator to check the current from there to ground. #62 is the main cable. At the end of it is #77 to the alternator and #80 to the starter. Lifting #62 at the #29 Cable Connector will let me check out the alternator without having to jack the car up...hopefully.

It will have to wait for Saturday. I will drive the car home tonight and check it at home. Right now I have the lead lifted on the battery to keep it from draining.
