check that. and use a multimeter to verify you can indeed getting a charge from the alternator on battery terminals.
13.5 to 14+ when the engine is on and running.

Thanks for the reply riceandpho:
Alt-S fuse is good. While I had the fuse out I measured the current going through that circuit with the key in the on position engine off, and with the engine running. Measured zero current for both. Seems like there should be some current? Any idea what this means?
Also measured the battery voltage: 12.8V with engine off and 13.96V while engine running.
Also checked the fuse labeled Gauge (7.5A) in the cabin fuse box. It goes to the battery light. Fuse was good and current measured .7-.8A with key in on position and .45A with engine running.
Attached is the circuit diagram from my Haynes manual. Any more ideas are much appreciated.
