Changed alt. but still loosing volts once started
SOURCE: is there a fuse/fusible link to alternator,
The wiring burning up at the altenator most likely caused the diode inside the altenator to short out. I would just replace the altenator now.
SOURCE: charging system error
Have the fusable link checked. It's a short insulated wire integral with the main wire harness. ( if it is equipped with one).

YOU ARE WRONG '' YOUR AIR BAG SENSOR OR MODULE IS WHERE YOU SHOULD LOOK AT

Hi, the actual output voltage produced by the alternator will vary depending on temperature and load, but will typically be about 1-1/2 to 2 volts higher than battery voltage. At idle, most charging systems will produce 13.8 to 15.3 volts with no lights or accessories on. This can be measured by connecting the positive (+) and negative (-) test leads of a voltmeter to the battery posts while the engine is running.
Possible cause of the alternator not charging includes Slipping or broken alternator belt, Open diode, Open circuit in stator windings, Open charging circuit, Open field circuit, Worn brushes or slip ring and Defective voltage regulator..
?€¢
The IPC determines that the system voltage is less than 11 volts or greater than 16 volts. The IPC receives a serial data message from the body control module (BCM) indicating the system voltage.
?€¢
The IPC performs the displays test at the start of each ignition cycle. The indicator illuminates for approximately 3 seconds.
?€¢
The ignition is on, with the engine off
