Mercruiser Alternator

Dire need of help here. I had a raw water pump go on me last year and evidently over the winter it froze the alternater because of all the saltwater it took in.

I ordered one replacement alternater (two wire / 863077-1) from DB through Amazon and they sent me two, no problem I will send one back if they pay for shipping.

I have installed both and the best I can do is 11.7 volts. It has to be very hard to hook it up wrong and I hate to think both are bad. If I disconnect the ground I still get 11.7 volts with a digital meter connect to power and ground terminal on the alternator if that helps.

If anybody has any thoughts I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance
Jack
