Jeep is a 95 YJ with the 4.0 and a 5 speed.
In a hurry and cross connected the pos/neg while jump starting the jeep. Started the jeep up and when I disconnected the cables the jeep died. That's when I realized my mistake. Jeep quit running when the cables came off. Connected properly and it would start when hooked to the cables but dies when the cables come off.
Went a got a new battery and it started and runs fine but the guage shows no charging. Needle halfway towards the red. Increasing revs does not move the needle towards green.
Is there a fuse I should check (and if so where?) or am I on my way to get a new alternator?
