PROGRESS ... tracked down the battery drain!

I'm going to use Unique's ProDesign wiring specifications to describe. The wire off the solenoid POS side turned out to be wire #27 that runs to the Ammeter ACC connection. Both the ACC and BATT connections on the Ammeter were hot, indicating electrical flow. I then disconnected wires: 41 (AMMETER BATT to FUSEBLOCK), 25 (AMMETER BATT to IGNITION), and 39 (AMMETER BATT to ALTERNATOR BAT). The culprit was 100% wire 39 with no other drains.

OK, I understand electrics by am a self-admitted poor mechanic. I tracked it to the alternator ... now what?

Thanks!
Jason

PS. Gotta give great thanks to Unique and Bruce Botti - cleanest markings and wire arrangements I've ever seen on an electrical system.

Poorboy: You got it right on!
