A 12 volt draw on battery from a one wire alternator

Did the switch thing for a while. Why wouldn't you just fix the problem? That gets old and pretty embarrassing if you ask me.
Yeah I know I was kidding around. Problem is, unless you are really good with multi meters and understand automotive DC circuits, trying to troubleshoot by reading all these posts looks frustrating, I would go nuts. I happen to have been trained in both automotive as well as avionics, so its almost second nature, I was just suggesting a " no headache " solution to the problem, as well as a quick no brainer fix.
