Default Re: Alternator going bad?

yes I do.. bummer, If I have time I will pull it and get it tested (curious what failed)

I will be at Marc's on Sunday with Alex, if my parts come by Friday, I can be there with the Z otherwise no such luck

I got the Stator but the Rebuild kit was sent to the wrong Post Office it seems, my guess it I will get it Monday

Which means this weekend will be beautiful

Oh well, I can finish replacing the front shock tower bushings tonight.. might pull the old Alt apart too

Issue still exists will disconnect what I added this year and check. Wiring looks fine otherwise. Battery is next to be checked. It is 7 years old
