Default '92 Dodge Colt Charging Problem

Hey, here's the story... I got this car a couple of months ago. It was running pretty rough at the time, I did the plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter, and adjusted the valves (1.5 liter). That car ran pretty sweet for about 10 days. Then the battery died while at work. Pulled the alt. and had it tested-bad. Bought a new one and got a new battery. Started it up and took it to auto zone to have the system tested. NO CHARGE going to the battery. Pulled the new alt. and had it tested. Tested fine. All the conections on the alt. and battery are good, ground wires look fine. Is there a charging system relay/fuse somewhere that I am missing, or what? Also, the charge light on the dash NEVER came on.
Perhaps anyone know about a wiring diagram online? Thanks alot...............Dodge 'em then Ram 'em

Turns out that the 'S' and the 'L' wires got crossed somehow, the mechanic said it might be in the internal regulator. He reattached the wires and it runs like a champ.
