What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?
After rebuilding and reinstalling the fried dash harness, the voltage from the alternator hit 18 volts and up. The alternator has an internal regulabor. So I ordered two new alternators from two different stores (neither had one in stock). Got the first one (like the original with a remote VR) installed a few days ago, but it’s not charging. The other new one was just delivered to the store (NAPA) yesterday, while I was away. So as they were closed today, I found two old alternators in my basement. I tried to install one, but they both have dual groove pulleys, that hit the custom fan shroud. So no go for either test. I placed jumper cables on the fire wall voltage regulators, but nothing I tried got the alternator to begin charging. So, now I wait until tomorrow to pick up the other rebuilt alternator and try it. I think the first one I tried was not working right from the rebuilder.
