check the battery. it may not be holding a charge!! at battery with car off it should read at least 13 volts, with it running at battery it should read 14 or a bit higher. have a good day!! check the engine and battery grounds also.
It's easy...
Disconnect the battery
Remove the supentine belt from the altenator pully, you can use a 3/8" drive breaker bar on the belt tensioner, just insert into the square slot on the tensioner and rotate it clockwise.
Remove the power wire and the harness
Remove the mounting bolts 1 under and 2 on the sides.
Just reverse the process to install the new altenator.
Make sure the supentine belt is in the proper position.
Make sure the battery is charged before starting, a drained battery can damage the FETs on the new altenator.
you must run a scan and try to check the fuse of the air bag under the hood,sometimes when you change battery the codes of you computer erase some of them,try to run a scan and reset the computer ,good luck
were talking about the big fat wire right? runs to the starter where the positive battery cable connects. Be sure the connections are clean and shiny bright on that cable and the battery connections and the starter connections. Make sure where the alternator bolts to the engine theres no corrosion and the bolts themselves are clean too, thats the ground for the alternator. Check the ground cable on the battery where it bolts to the body and or the engine too.
