Re: [DML] New Alternator

[DMCVIN6683 <dmcvin6683@xxxxxxxxx>]

Funny my lights do not dim with my D110 from John Hervey nor did i have 
any of these mounting problems you all have that posted. I hope you 
read the instructions that came with the alternator first.

First thing to do is clean all ground connections, battery connections 
and your dimming should go away. Second thing to do is when you have a 
problem with any part you bought from any vendor you should ask the 
vendor you bought it from first before posting to the list because they 
are the one to ask when you have a problem with their product.
