Update #2
It has to be the alternator.
I connected the alternator to a charged battery with jumper cables and placed my ammeter in this circuit. The current is 3 amps. This is external to the vehicle without any other circuits involved and without the alternator connected to anything else.
I get the remanufactured Bosch alternator tomorrow from local auto parts store. Will install and give the final updates. Thanks again.
