great guide, thank you
thanks
Thankyou very much. My sisters van has been siting in my front yard for
about 2 weeks now. I told her i would take a look at it. It died when she
was about to leave for work. I got it running by jumping it off of my moms
car. While it was running i checked the charging/battery gauge and it read
just on the half mark. So i have came to the conclusion that it is charging
just not enough. Help please.
Krystal, please watch this video and our video on alternator
troubleshooting and perform the tests, or have a certified technician look
at your vehicle. There is no single fix for this issue, and we cannot
diagnose your vehicle’s electrical problem through YouTube comments. Good
luck!
my car just stop running. I was driving an it cut rite off. now the lights
was still work in power locks as well. but my window won’t come back up. I
tried to restart my it doesn’t even turn over. please help
Thanks
Thanks and good luck!

best!

you! AWESOME!!!

Now THAT is how you make a great video that gets to the point, teaches well
and is fun to watch. I have to replace an alternator on a 96 Plymouth grand
voyager. This is for a friend with bad heart trouble. I try to help him
with stuff like this. Any thing in particular I need to know other than
what was in your video? MANY thanks again for a superb video.
Our pleasure!
That’s great news, Brian!
I love to watch your videos…wish you lived here in michigan, I could use
a good intelligent mechanic
Need to know what, @TheBrandy0818?

Good news, @Pagansdad! Glad we could help.

Thankyou for posting the video helps a lot 🙂
Would you mind if I inboxed you a video of my truck that I uploaded to
YouTube to show you what is going on with my truck?
this was just great, subscribed because of this great video with Eric the
car guy, was easy to follow and was awesome to see how it was easily done
and the proper way.
Thanks for the vid eric, very helpful :)!
Hey man: I just want yo say Thanks your video helps me a lot. Gracias…
awesome.
No problem. Thanks for the encouragement.
So whats the difference if you disconnect the positive battery cable
Hey Eric do you have to have the 3rd bolt on the back of the alternator
bolted down?
Fantastic. You saved me about $400.oo. Thanks
@MegaBruceleroy, all alternators have different replacement procedures
depending on application. Sorry, but we do not have a video for your
vehicle. Please indicate which engine is in your Caravan. 2.4L, 3.3L or
3.8L. I can look up labor times to help indicate how difficult the job is.
@ExtraIncme, if the alternator is crooked the belt could be slipping,
preventing the alternator from charging the battery. Also, make sure you
acquired the correct pulley with your replacement alternator. It will be
hard to reach an accurate diagnosis as long as the alternator is mounted
incorrectly.
Hi my battery light stays on in my 96 cutlass I bought a new alternator n
battery. I put alt. In my self its slightly crooked. The bat.light still is
on in my car meaning its not charging. Could the slight crookedness be the
problem? ? I need help fast!.
THANKS A BUNCH, @UUOPPOWER2DO!
By “old school” do you mean with a V belt?
Glad we could save you some pounds!
Absolutely!
That’s good news. Take care.
Thanks for the encouraging words!
Anything on a 1994 dodge Stealth?
Thanks a bunch, @celgrande1978!
