Subject: Re: Had to do an alternator by hcbph on 2018/6/20 23:06:59 Here's some info in case someone runs into the same thing. If a known good alternator doesn't charge, try temporarily hooking a wire between the bat lug on the alternator and the positive battery post, if it works now, it's wiring. The wire from the bat lug is a resistance wire and goes from the alt to the power distribution lug under the battery. There's a pigtail off the positive cable that also goes to that lug. In my case both wires ohm'd ok, so it made no sense why it wasn't charging. Turned out the crimp on lug on the alt end of that wire wasn't "tight". Recrimped it and it fixed my issue. I wish I could find a replacement for that resistor wire, but so far no luck on a new one. |
