So it started out with just my alternator not charging my battery. I took the alternator to autozone to have it tested and it tested good, multiple times. Went home, reinstalled the alternator and it started charging again. A few days later, the problem came back. I found that if you push down on the alternator plug that the voltmeter would fluctuate. I looked closer and noticed that one of the wires was bare and barely intact. So I took apart the plug and redid the wires. I don't remember exactly what order the wires went and I know I got it wrong because I melted my jumper cables trying to jump start my car. Now my car has 0 power(can't tell if its the dead battery or the fusible link) and I'm hating taking the bus home from work at 7am.
Can anyone provide me with some reference for the actual 3 wire plug? The car is an 89 Turbo Automatic but has an 87 7mge(jdm) manual. Also I have a redtop optima and the stock alternator that came with the engine.
