I did not find the how to, not even under the how to section. Can someone post the link?

Also, I havn't looked at the ex's car yet...but she said the battery light came on but she turned her blower off along w/ the sterio and it went off.

Would this indicate a bad or going bad alternator?

If the belt was busted, would the battery light be on all the time??

Thanks alot guys, appreciate it.

Btw, it's a 97 Ford Contour GL 2.0 DOHC



Ray's how to is for a Duratec V6.

Yes, it could be a bad or alternator going bad.

Yes, to the belt busted question (and charge light being on all the time could also be megafuse problem).


Edit. Ray's how to in Duratec Maintenance FAQ

I think the I-4 Zetec alternator removal is "easier". I remember reading a post a few days ago. Someone was changing the regulator.
