OK,
After going through the puddles WITHOUT a shield underneath, I expeienced a loss of charging.
I checked out ther following: Primary circuit wiring (yellow) and leads to starter solinoid, Alternator (was fresh rebuild by reputable shop 6 months ago) and battery.
Battery was funky and was replaced under warranty (not sure it was bad but it was low and wouldn't take a load). Wiring looked good except fusible link felt "soft" on wire from alternator to starter solinoid. Drones at Autozone tested alternator as OK.
Buttoned everything up again with new battery and drove home. On the way, I lost charge intermitantly a few times and headlights dimmed.
Any thoughts on where to look? I'm suspecting wire harness to alternator, probably the fusible link, although it rang out on resistance test just fine.
I may just "rebuild" this harness, since its one of the few I haven't on this gem.
