Consensus is a non-charge from the alternator. The rebuilder (here in NC) did a great job (pulled it completely to pieces and replaced all, so I feel confident in the main guts of the alternator. I did, however, leave one detail out, and it makes me lean more toward the "stuck brushes" theory...it was icy rain when we parked it 8 days prior. As the sun comes up, I have charged the battery, and will pull the brushes to eyeball. Thanks for all the help. I'll keep you posted. 12 degrees this morning, in NC. G.
