Yup, the ground wire on the alternator is loose. Or the alternator just went south.

I got $20 on the ground wire. The 10 mm nut has a tendency to back itself off when you least expect it.

The ground to check is the small one that is under the black rubber boot on the top drivers side of the alternator. Press all the plugs in nice and tight on it while your at it.

Dave you are kidding right? That wire on top of the alternator is power not ground!
