Alternator Wiring Question

[donnieR32]

For the last two years I've been dealing with an alternator that, well, doesn't work.

Started doing my research and figured out that three wires run from the alternator through the fire wall. The white wire is cut, the red wire goes towards the fuse box, the blue wire turns right and heads somewhere to the right of the passanger foot well.

It is my understanding that the red and blue wires (or whatever two have power) are supposed to be spliced together. Any ideas? I'd hate to cross wires and burn or melt something, but having a brand new alternator that doesn't work and a battery that needs to be on a tender constantly is a real pain.

If needed I can post pictures of the wiring, but without removing the dash I can't exactly find where that red wire goes. Attempted the removal yesterday and turned back when I couldn't remove the steering wheel hub.
