I just got back from getting my alternator tested and it passed. I was kinda hoping it was alternator, because now I don't know where to look. On to the story.
Started my car one afternoon and the battery light did not turn off like usual. I drive about 5 mins and come to a stop and it flickers away. It did not return after a 15 mins drive home. I popped the hood to see if I noticed any extra squeal and it seemed louder than usual. I go to turn the car off to notice the battery light slowly turning on again. After a few searches and a post about it, I assumed it was the alternator.
So now I get to locate my problem. I also broke the mega fuse wire connection (I'll post a pic in a few) to the alternator, so that definitely needs replacing, as well as my somewhat striped bolts. What else could the problem be?
Thanks for any help.
