Electrical problems?
Ok, me again.....I got my alternator from ebay almost a month ago
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...&rd=1
I think dustbuster4 (acura-cl.com) bought his from the same guy, they seem really legit and are very courteous...
Anyway, it died after a week of having it the first time...so I sent it back, the guy said it was a bad regulator. They replaced it and re-shipped. I put it in last night and before I could get to the end of my road, my battery light came on again. It appears as if the alternator has gone bad AGAIN!
Im calling and shipping it back out again tomorrow. Has anyone had any other electrical probs with their 3.0's? I check my stereo system to see if that was causing a problem, but it appears to be wired up all correctly. Ive had that installed for several months now. I dont think it could be the system anyway, I dont think my stereo could ruin my alternator INSTANTLY, without blowing one of the in-line fuses, right?
Sorry to vent, Ive been w/o a car for several weeks now and am getting extremely frustrated!!! I used to love my R6, now riding it to get to work and back everyday is getting old, especially at 6 AM when it is still 40 degrees out!!
Let me know if anyone has any info on their electrical/charging system on their cars....Thanks.
