Do you get the 'klunk' sound when pulling key out of ignition?
Does radio stay on (for longer than 20 sec when key removed)?

If so, it's a DIY r7R for ~ $30 if you buy part from dealer or < $10 if you buy online at autohousaz.com link here to part

Might also check for water under driver seat.

Bottom line, I agree, doesn't seem like it's your alt...
YES, I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT TOO! HOW DO I REPLACE THE KEY SWITCH?
