I just bought this m1008:), had alt issue from start. I paid a small fortune for alt, with isolated ground(drivers side)and still no charge, no gen 1 light or anything. Some info i printed out from other threads suggests that the pass side alt is the one with isolated ground......by the way, truck starts well with batteries charged and atleast one batt dies in only 15 minutes with no lights or accessories on. the bad alt also tested that the stator was burned up.:x

I have the wiring diagram for charging circuits E-10, but it does not show isolated ground on only 1 alt, or it doesn't show at all...tough to tell for the wiring challenged!:!:

Originally both alternators are isolated ground(same part numbers). Only the passenger side(rear battery) alternator NEEDS to be Isolated ground.
