Sounds silly but make sure your drive belt is not loose or slipping as that can cause the alternator to bot rotate and generate a charge to the battery

Also make sure you get your fault codes reset aswell

have you tested your battery , and check your terminals are clean and tight , check the ware indicator on tension arm , maybe but doubt it be your belt.

And I "think" theirs a fuse bellow the batt that controls the regulator.

Close... Their is a 7.5A ALT fuse in one of the two fuse boxes that controls the alternator. The one at the battery is the big ####er that carries the charge itself. One of the fusible links. The smaller fuse is ignition fed hence not located near the battery.
