I have a 1994 FZJ80. I recently replaced the alternator with an Denso replacement from @cruiseroutfit. Still was having issues with a dead battery on occasion. I replaced the fusible link and installed a new battery tonight. I had the old one tested and it had gone bad. I had them test the alternator too and they said its working but not putting out enough power - although from what I understand if your battery is bad the alternator will not test correctly? So maybe the alternator is fine. I may take it back in to have it tested with the new battery.
Probably unrelated but I have noticed that my windshield wipers pretty much only have one speed on all 4 setting. Also I am pretty sure before the alternator issue my headlights would turn off when I locked the car with the fob, now they do not. Maybe I am mistaken on that, but pretty sure that's how it worked?
I'm just curious if anyone else has had this issue and what was the cause, or if these are all unrelated issues.
