Well I went back after it this afternoon, took the generator to a buddy of mine and he said nothing wrong with it. Went to Case and pd $40 for a new VR, came home, hooked it up, flashed the gen and Bingo, it charges.
Man what a run around, I now have the complete wiring schematic for a SA memorized, at least for a day or 2 until it my tired mind forgets it.
