At least on my car which is a 1988 with a 3G alternator, the stator wire is connected from the 3 pin plug on the alternator, to the stator plug a couple inches away on the alternator. Stator is white and black, there is also a yellow and white that goes from the same 3 pin plug to the power terminal on the alt. Last wire way be your troubles, it is green and red and is the hot with key/instrument cluster idiot light wire. If that is not connected your alt will not charge. Of course your alt could be bad to.
