If you have access to the electrical manual for the 2019 Nissan Rogue, can you tell me which wire (color) and which pin # in the IPDM sends the charge signal to the alternator?

This will be the single wire that the IPDM uses to send signals from the VVCS (variable voltage control system) to the alternator to control charge voltage.

Thanks

I answered your other post, there's no cuttable wire. The '17~'20 gen2's and all the gen3's have LAN alternators wired to the ECM, not PWM alternators wired to the IPDM like earlier models.

If it's about disabling 'smart' charging,

I cut the pink wire for the current sensor on our 2018 Rogue and that did the trick,

now behaves like the 'dumber' chargers of old

Yep, that's what he wants to do, but there's actually no need to cut anything. Pulling the connector to the Current Sensor per the OP's other post will serve the same purpose.

I left the connector on to still have the temperature sensor connected,
assuming that the temperature compensation still works even with the current sensor gone.

Which is just a hope or guess...

Old school vehicles had neither current nor battery temperature sensors because they didn't need them. The not-so-smart smart charge is what makes both necessary, but that only exists in a questionable effort to save a couple tenths of a mile per gallon at the cost of trashing batteries when it malfunctions. You don't need either one.
