Check to see if your alternator is charging

DXK Eg

How do you know if your alternator is charging? Or how do you check it?

Kal

a volt meter. also check your terminals and wiring from the alternator to the terminals.

maybe you got something draining power on right now like a hidden light in your trunk or something,maybe you got some wiring problems from the alternator.,check your ground connection
