2G Alternator on a '92 F150 5.0L
'93-up have a 3G alternator. All 2Gs are fire hazards, despite the TSB below. They should all be upgraded to 3G, and it's nearly a PnP swap.

ISSUE: When a generator fails, there are a few failure modes that may cause heat to be produced at the wiring harness-to-generator connector. This excess heat may damage the female terminals on the wiring harness, resulting in increased resistance. The increased resistance produces more heat. When the generator is replaced, the resistance produced by a damaged connector may damage the new generator and could result in a repeat repair, including installation of another generator. High resistance (caused by a damaged connector) will not go away until the damaged connector is replaced.

ACTION: Visually inspect the harness-to-generator connector for damage (heat, corrosion, distortion and cracking) before installing a new generator. Install the Generator Wiring Harness Connector Kit (E5AZ-14305-AA) if the harness-to-generator connector is damaged.

The Generator Wiring Harness Connector Kit (E5AZ-14305-AA) contains the following:

One (1) Red Wire Butt Connector
Two (2) Yellow Wire Butt Connectors
One (1) Wire Connector Assembly
One (1) Instruction Sheet (I.S. 6849)

To test the alt, first install a good CHARGED battery. Then momentarily ground the screw on the back of the alt where it says GROUND HERE TO TEST (the Field brush screw) using a jumper wire with the engine at 1500-2500RPM. Have a voltmeter connected across the battery posts. The voltage should instantly spike over 15.5V, and continue to climb slowly. Don't ground that screw for any longer than it takes to make this observation (a couple of seconds). If it fails, the fault could be in the alternator, the wiring, or any connection (including the alt to the block).
