No amps reading on #2 alternator

[ronmarabito2002]

Tom: I have a 92WB40. According to George in service at BB, when
the wire comes off the shunt, it is routed through a circuit breaker
and relay on this coach. Alternator #1 shows up just fine, but not
Alternator #2. I believe the dash switch probably controls the
relay switching between the two alternators.

I have not check the switch, and I guess that could be possible, but
when we switched output wires from the alternators and I got a good
reading then for #2 which was actually #1.
