When you pulled the Alt. out make sure the plug on the back is on good.
My AC locked up and I ended up taking off the Alt. to loosen the belt--then discovering how to take the belt off the right way. But when i put the Alt. back on the plug was not on properly and caused me to not get a charge. Just an idea...

This is the best picture I can find right now. The fuse is in the black plastic box on the fender well just to the rear of the driver's side battery. I keep a spare in the truck, along with all of my other goodies. Scroll down so you can see figure 27.

Here is the TSB for adding a plastic cover to the B+ terminal on the alternator.
