@makende if by "non chargering" you are referring to the battery not being charged, we would need to know what you have tried. The very first thing you want to do is to heck your battery. First check your voltage at the battery. Using a voltmeter place Negative to negative on the battery, positive to positive on the battery. With the van not running test your battery. It should read around 12.5 volts with nothing on. Next check it while the engine is running. Negative to negative on the battery, positive to positive on the battery. You want to see between 13.5-14 volts. If you get a low reading that means that either your battery is dying or your alternator is on the way out. If the voltage is low, it is most likely your alternator that needs repair. Since you did not tell us the exact year and the exact engine size, here are a few of the charging circuits diagrams I have.
First is a 1.9L engine

Next is a 2.1L engine

Next is a 2.1 L Digijet engine

THe last one I have is for the 1.6 and 1.7L Diesel

Let us know what you find out. Yes, your alternator can be rebuilt, but we would need to know more information about your T3
