JQuery Validate Regex Password Validation

Question

I have been reading about how to manipulate regex, and I do think I have the correct formula for my purpose, but I cannot seem to get it to work.

This is my code

$.validator.addMethod("pwcheck", function(value) {
    var regex = /^[a-zA-Z0-9]*$/;
    if (!regex.test(value)) {
        return false;
    }
});

I added this method to my password in the .validate({rules{}}); It is linked properly, but whatever I input in the text box I get the message I wrote in the .validate({messages{}}); the user should be only allowed to input letters and numbers, and seeing other methods posted on this site I tried to mimic and copy them, but it isn't working.

   return /^[A-Za-z0-9]*$/.test(value)
});
