It didn't work...
I tore into the wiring some more and found the big connector behind the left headlight was fr-r-r-ried and a few wires had holes, like from previous probing and not repaired. Also the round connector between the alt and voltage reg is stuck. It'll wiggle but it won't come apart. I don't want to trash it (yet) while separating it but that may have to happen. Hm... I hate wiring crap.
