1979 Toyota Corolla 4 Cyl 1.6 L. New alternator, new external regulator. Battery fully charged, post clean, new termials. Connector that plugs into alternator clean & fits tight. But battery doesn't charge. I could use some advice. Thank you all for your time & help.

Hi there,

You will have to re check for any charge rate, if the alt is working, (don't just presume because it is a new unit) Check battery terminals, and have battery load tested. Also check for any charging system fuses or fusible links.
