There are grounding problems on 1999 to 2003 Lincoln Town cars causing alternators not to charge properly and running batteries down. We replaced 3 alternators and 1 battery. We checked all ground straps on chassis/frame/engine and couldn't find exact location of ground strap that was defective. Also checked fuses and made sure all switches off in car especially heater/AC. Improvised by installing a new ground strap from engine ground to chassis/battery ground. System now charging properly, alternator output 13.5v to 14.5+v.

Where is the Ground wire on alternator from battery?

There usually isn't one. The vehicle becomes the ground, and since the alternator is physically attached to the engine, the case of the alternator becomes the ground. Note that the battery is also connected to the vehicle chassis, usually at 2 or more points, and that the engine usually has a grounding strap to some solid point on the chassis.
