Need an Alternator

**laosracer12** · 12-17-08, 21:03

I think my alt is dying, i see a battery light, but when i rev i a little bit, it goes away. I tried taking the negative of the battery while the car ran and it died after a few seconds. So i'm assuming it's my alt that is dying. Anyone got an alt they would sell me that would fit my car?

yes, it is your alternator dying. same thing happened to me. swapped my alternator and all problems went away. unfortunately the only extra one I have is the dying one. planning on getting it rebuilt or maybe doing it myself or having someone I know do it

Second on the alternator = your problem. I wish i had one laying around, i USUALLY do.

yeah, this started to happen about 2 weeks ago. My battery is 7 months old and i tested it to make sure it was good. might as well get a new belt too.

I have a great working alternator. Its less then 5 months old- do you want to pick it up or would you prefer it shipped?

how much would you sell it for? i can pick it up if the snow goes away.
