Just keep in mind that the VF smart charging system uses the battery state of charge to optimise the charge rate.
Battery state of charge is calculated by the BCM using a current sensor at the battery terminal itself. The BCM can sense the current going in and out of the battery itself and uses some voodoo magic to decide how much energy the alternator should push into the battery… If the current sensor or the wiring to BCM is faulty you will have battery charge issues even if the battery and alternator are ok.
Have no idea if the battery current sensor line on your graph is ok…
