[DMCForum] Alternator-less (was: Shortend/Clickable URLs -- Strickland Friendly)



Rich,
I'm alternatorless because I let James LaLonde take the one off my car so
he
could  drive home last weekend. He came down to help me and some other D
owners
and ended up having problems with his car on the way here. 

I mentioned it to tease him because this week has been extremly nice and I
can't
drive :-) A replacement is on the way. Thanks for the info! 

Hey James,
If your not returning you old Alt for the $30 core charge you may want to
look
into having it re-built & keep as a spare.

Shannon Y
16506 soon not to be alternator-less ;-)

Shannon,

Why are you still "alternator-less"?

Are you in the U.S.? Dissatisfied with the stock model, and not sure 
what to get for a replacement? Don't have the cash?

I ask, because I had this problem and I took a route that seems 
obvious to me, but one that I don't hear D owners take advantage of 
very much. I'm on a budget here.

At the time, I was unaware that the stock alternator doesn't carry 
the load very well. I just took mine to an auto-electrical repair 
shop and had it rebuilt for less than half the cost of a new one. It 
would have been even less but mine was a rusted, seized up 
paperweight so it took the guy extra labor.

That was exactly one year ago, and even under load (lights, cooling 
fans and blower on) mine doesn't drop more than one volt.

Surely there's an auto electrical repair shop near you?

Hope this helps,

Rich
