Why wont my alternator charge on my 1994 Chevy lumina apv with 3800 liter engine?

Have you measured the voltage across the battery with the engine running? It should measure approximately 14v. If not you want to replace your alternator/voltage regulator. Check your shop manual to see if you can open the alternator and replace the brushes. After so many miles the brushes wear down, this is the most frequent cause of alternator failure. there is a fusable link in the line between the battery and the alternator i replaced the battery and alt. but still wouldn't charge track the wire
