Does anyone know how the diagram for wiring an alternator for an s13 sr20det?

I can't figure it out, so my battery just keeps dying instead of charging while the cars running.

You can find the wiring diagrams in the factory service manual.

your battery constantly dying with a good battery is not a charging cycle usually. The probably is more likely yo be a parasitic drain. Something that is hooked up or you hooked up to the electrical system that is not fully or properly shut off.

In my old 180sx it was a dirty ground and the radio power line, separate things, but both were causing the drain. I would start with anything you changed or added.
