Look up on YouTube. ChrisFix has good video on this titled. “How to test an alternator”. There are many on here watch a few and see if your wiring is good. He also shows how to load test your battery. You might have a bad battery?

I will check out the videos may be I can find something on there ive looked at thousands of YouTube videos and have been trying everything. My alternator and. Battery are brand new. Plus I have a battery reader on my truck. Plus my truck wouldn't jump start from the starter is my battery or my alternator was bad. My next step is the ignition switch.

Have you tried putting truck in neutral and trying to start it? Bad safety neutral switch.
