Default alternator wiring - Blue wire issues

Ok.... did a few electrical checks.... dash light is good, main power on the red wire is good, but even with the ignition on, I have no power in the blue wire to the alternator.

How do I trace this through the car? On my fox's, the wire runs by the battery and is obvious..... I have no idea where it goes in the 4kq wiring harness.

Any help?

Also, anyone know the wire colour on the dash wiring so I can check to make sure voltage is making it out of the charging circuit.

Man.... I really need some bentley's... 4kq, 90q

I once found that wire pinched and broken right at the battery location!

Any reason I can't run a new blue wire from cluster to alt?
