i fixed it finally, i took out the alternator i was going to replace it , i noticed tone of the terminals on the plug in was black. i scraped it clean with a knife cleaned out female end also , reinstalled, same thing so i pulled plug it didn't have a good contact it was ARCING, SO WHAT I DID WAS TAKE SOME 16 GAUGE ELECTRICAL WIRE I HAD IN MY STEREO STUFF, STRIPPED ABOUT AN INCH WORTH, CUT OFF ABOUT 1/4 INCH FOR EACH SIDE TWISTED IT THEN STUFFED IT IN THE FEMALE SIDE OF THE PLUG . THEN PLUGED IT BACK IN , IT WAS VERY SNUG And had TO PUSH A LITTLE HARDER TO GET IT TO CLICK.
after that it has charged very good , all this time it was just a bad connection. hope this helps someone in the future as it was a pain in the ***, to diagnose .
