What it does

Testing the battery and connections first saves replacing the wrong part. Electrical faults often show up as warning lights, rough running or no-start problems, and the right replacement part clears the cause rather than the symptom.

Installation & tips

• Disconnect the battery before working on the alternator or starter, and clean the cable ends.
• Battery: A weak battery is hard on a new alternator.
• Drive belt: A slipping belt mimics a bad alternator.
• Put the new part next to the old one and compare the shape, mounting points and connections before you install it.
• Disconnect the battery before you unplug or splice any wiring, and test everything works before you refit trim panels.
