Yup, Y'all were right. My nice Taiwanese Alternator lasted one week... Is that a record? Makes that 9 to 3 am exchange feel so worth it.
The Voltage regulator went Friday. Headlights bright, then dim, then bright, then dim. I even have people flashing their brights back at me. I guess they think I'm flashing them. Tonight, I'm back to all the lights comming on at idle.
So, I ordered a new Yota alt this morning. After work tomorrow I'm going t replace the thing again. Then take that taiwanese thing and shove it up that Autozone booty...
DON"T BUY AFTERMARKET ALTERNATORS!!
P.S.
When I talked to the Yota parts dude, my MUD knowledge shined through. He wanted to sell me the 90 amp alt. I told him it should be the 80 amp, with the external fan, and the external voltage regulator. I hope that was right.
