Have a 94 full size bronco with a 5.0 automatic eddie bauer model. Been working on this for 2 weeks now andout of hair to pull out. The issue is that it is not charging, have replaced the alternator with a known good unit putting out 13.95 volts. Replaced battery and v-belt as well. All fuses are good and a brand new negative battery cable(the old one was bad). All I am getting at the back of the alternator is the battery voltage, liie there is some thing not telling the alternator to turn on. Not sure what to check now.

Check the battery voltage record it before you start vehicle and while engine is running let me know both readings.
