98 windstar 3.8 problems - CarGurus

Just had a similar issue with my 09 CVPI.
Charge the battery, start the car.
Car starts and is running, good.
Now disconnect the ground from the battery.
The car still runs. Battery or wire issues something is draining the battery.
Car dies. The alternator is shot.
Got to junk yard find one for your vehicle.
My "battery" light came on and I pulled both the battery and the alternator too them to be tested. Both tested good on their systems. Did the above test and changed the alternator. No issues as of yet and no "battery light. Problem solved.
Junk yard alternator $25.00, $5.00 core.
New alternator $355.xx plus tax and $15.00 core.
Core is money I will get back when I turn in the old alternator.

Check and clean and tighten all battery, starter, and alternator connections. Also the battery and engine to chassis grounds. Did you have the battery " load tested" as a good test requires?
Take the battery out and have it charged up. If the alternator is good, you should not have any more problems. But if you need a jump after a few days to start it, then either the alternator or the battery is just not up to par. Have the alternator tested while on the car and running.
Good luck.

I put a hot wire from the battery to the voltage sensing wire on the alternator...all the flickering and problems went away.

you alternator is no good to ceck alternator start car while running take off positive cable if it dies your alternator is no good but thats what it sounds like

Yes, it is likely an alternator since the battery light goes on when the alternator is not charging.

Good luck on this one.

Your alternator went out allowing the battery to die, taking away power from the spark plugs, Please get new alternator and replace battery this should fix your problem.

Could be the fuel pump relay. I had this issue on an Audi. Ran fine, died...wait, then starts and runs. It was the fuel pump relay.

i work for advanced auto
the altiniator can bee goood but the voltige regulator is bad

regulator is built in to alternator, you need to have it tested. My guess is it's time for a replacement. Most parts places like autozone, will test it for you & sell you the proper one to replace it.
