Re: 2000 Windstar Alternator Problem

If I had to guess, I'd say that one of the diodes is "winking out" so that the alternator can only produce 20-30 amps?

Just guessing.

If I knew the alternator had an internal regulator and NOT controlled by the ECU, I'd consider simply replacing it. But if it is a bad ground or connector in the control circuit, that is another matter.
