Pay an auto spark it give it a shot your self.
I use an indicator from a p 4 Rover and some leads and a crocky clip.
one lead with the crocky goes on the bat pos and the other end of the "tester" touches the bat neg-
does it light?
you have a circuit
Now itls just a logical progressive test.
Battery neg or engine steel then probe the alternator big wire,
does it light?
Not high tech but you can chase a "hot" wire ftom the alternator back up
