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

Re: Alternator going bad?
Had it tested.. They test 3 parts, failed all 3, not sure if it once it fails one it fails all or not though

Re: Alternator going bad?
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
