You obviously have a hard fault in the circuit. Somewhere in the system the power is grounding out before it is supposed to. I would download a diagram from autozone.com in the DIY section. There you can trace where the power is supposed to go and look for chaffed or bare wiring.

Look like the design change was later, but 1998 might be iffy unless your 1998 was made in 1997.

Isuzu North America also offered a three-door version under the name Isuzu Amigo, sold as the Isuzu MU in Japan. A second generation of the SUV was released in 1998 for the 1998 model year, with the three-door Amigo becoming the "Rodeo Sport" in 2000 for the 2001 model year.

My Rodeo 2004 is showing ABS and Brake light on Dash. Mechanic check shows error CO221 RHF ABS channel in release 2 long. Whats the problem?

Check the wiring to the sensor on the wheel on the front passenger side. Look for any areas that are worn etc. If there are any, repair them. IF you don't find any check the connections and then replace the sensor.

I have 2002 and I find that you have to come to a complete stop, put it in reverse momentarily, and that should take care of it. Cheaper than going to the dealer and having them really fix it!!!

Alternator keeps going bad - three so far. Battery light flickering off/on now.

You have probably been getting 'rebuilt' units which is not bad in itself but if the rebuilder received a batch of bad diodes they may have these failures until they are exhausted.
But, buddy, you ain't broke my record yet; a lousy Saturn (LAST GM I will own!) bought new, ate SIX (6) alternators in 57,600 miles. That wasn't the worst problem; it ate the auto tranny at 31,000 and dropped a rod cap at the above final mileage.
