| Re: alternator not charging
| alright guys i saw this and need to raise it from the dead, here is the problem. I am having the same issue i have been through 3 alts in the past three days one of them being a 200 amp power mate. This all started when my fans quit working one day, everything on the fans are pretty much stock except i wired an additional 30 amp silinoid to ground out the secondary fan relay which would engadge it. today i installed the powermate started the car and it ran great for about 10 minutes then it quit charging. now i had my fans rewired to go directly from the battery to the hot wire that comes from the fuseable link on the starter i believe this link opened. also i have a problem with the alt getting extremely hot to hot to almost touch also i have three wires that go into the back of my alt from the harness one is brown one is brown with a white stripe and the red. i know where the red is suppose to go but what about the others. I also have a digital guage cluster i dont know if this matters. I recieved a new plug with the alt but thought it was optional but the new plug only uses the L and S termerls if i was to use this replacement harness which wires would i hook the L and S terminal to? | | | |
