I have the 2001 35 open with the 6BTAs. I had a problem with my port charging system. Had several " electrical experts" look at it . They all said the balmar alt was bad. I removed the alt and took it to a rebuilt shop. They bench tested it and found it to be good. I replaced the unit. tighented all the connections and still didn't charge . I decided to start from scratch with the ground. from the alt to the reg. - OK , the ground from the reg to the battery " NG. I ran a new ground wire from the reg to the battery and all is well! sometimes it is too simple, we always look for the difficult fix. dbb
