Alternator Plus question - (search useless)
OK, i had a bad alternator. I bought a used alternator but it was obdI (my car is obdII) I cut off my plug and soldered the hew plug as follows-
obdI plug----------------obdII plug
blk/yel----------------blk/yel
wht/blu----------------wht/blu
Blue----------------wht/red
wht/yel----------------wht/grn
Is this right.....Also after the new alternator is in the car, the voltage was at 11.8 on start up and would drop very slow, 11.7 11.6........so on. WTF? Could this be the 2nd bad alternator? Both were used alternators?

Use DVOM to check voltage of battery when car is off, make sure it's near 12.6, if not then replace battery. If it's not the battery, stop being so cheap and run down to autozone and get a reman alternator.
