Re: Alternator problem?

Welcome to AF!!

The alternator is bad and needs replaced. If you can't handle $200 right now check with a wrecking yard. You should be able to get a good used one for about half the price of a new one if not less. When you put the new one in make sure you remove the battery terminals since a short can destroy the new one. Also recharge the battery with a charger prior to starting your vehicle. This will insure that the new alternator lives a long life!
