not charging

I have a 1998 Forest River w/454 on a p-30 Alternator that has checked out good. But not charging the system. Have checked wires and all connections for ohms and voltage coming from and to where it goes. But still no charge. If you unhook the battery it will die. Where do I go next?

  • with good battery power it will start and run. Till I unhook the battery, then it dies
  • Take the battery out and put it on a charger. Fully charge and take it to a battery shop of local auto parts store and have it load tested. Probably ypu will find battery is toast.
