They are bad about melting the contacts on the inside. Plug will look perfectly normal on the outside. But the inside will be melted to shit

the bad part is. You more than likely didnt need a alternator or a battery.... At least its fixed and you learned somthing. Did you apply some die-electric grease to the new harness plug?

yes i applied the die-electric grease they came pre greased but i added some extra, and thank you! i definitely needed the alternator and the battery though since the alternator was spiking and killing the battery (prolly what burned the plug) . i just didn't think the plug was fried and yes definitely a learning and money spending experience.
