Interesting you say this b/c I got a new battery few months ago. The new battery had smaller terminals and it wasn't charging and I got new terminals....but like $5 Autozone brand ones. I'll go there and see if they can check my alternator (can they?) and try new terminals.
P.S. Do not take it to the Dealer...you will be out $135 bucks, and that will get you nowhere. Hope this helps and update us with the progress.

Go to Autozone, and have everything tested for free- charging system, battery, alternator...all under 1 roof, best part is it's free...Do that today without any delay. I'm not sure if you put in the terminals or someone else did...but whoever did it needs to recheck that...the connection needs to be completely tight.

fixed alternator.
aluminum block + steel bolt + midwest salt = broken bolt with half of the bolt in the block and me ending up having to tow the GS to a shop
So far no electrical issues yet.
