[@metal.mover23]

Dan is a hell of a teacher he really has a way of making the things he is teaching easy to digest... I enjoy these eps

[@jamesb.9155]

These valuable instructional videos would benefit many a car owner or mechanic in understanding in depth, the functioning and maintenance of their cars and their systems and equipment.

[@hubercats]

Outstanding video - concise, informative and clear. Thank you, Professor!

[@JohnHappelFullMastHap]

Awesome training video!!! I've been a auto tech for 30 years. You taught me things I didn't know for years until I watched this (Clocking an alternator could have saved me a lot of waiting for right parts time). Nice!!!! TY!!!

[@Stoparts]

what can kill the alternator premature? I changed the alternator in my caravan 2000, did not drive it for a year ,and when I did alternator was done.

[@danndann8895]

Thank you, great video, but where can I get the parts to rebuild my alternator such as brushes, regulator and diods

[@fredadeisaac8818]

Hi, Dan Great for two videos on starter and alternator systems. These have shown me a lot and hoping to follow more about car corner trainings.

Great job ,

[@wonniewarrior]

Had a 1982 Ford Falcon XD. At time it was unknown but it had a cracked circuit board and the connection between battery light on dash and alternator rarely gapped and give a accurate reading. So sometimes the car would start and alternator would put out 10 volts with lights very dim (dash had a volt meter). Other times it would start and give me 18 volts though I admit low beam was so much freaking brighter than high beam on 14 volts. Took it to sparky and he correctly guesed before he examined it that it was the circuit board behind the instument cluster (or inside) the cluster as the old boards would crack after so many years. The board was brown in colour with I think silver lines ? This was diagnosed in 2008 or thereabouts. If battery was flat, could remove leads, pull out battery and put in donor battery, start my car and then take it out and put original back in while it was still running. My current car (a 2004 model) will hold overnight at 12.2 volts, and run at 14.4 volts. The headlights low beam will take 0.2v (14.2) off reading, brake lights will take 0.1v (14.3) off reading and air conditioner will take 0.2v / 0.3v volts (14.2 / 14.1) off reading when being used while car running at highway speed.

[@rusco321]

How do you full field an alternator?

[@tariqmasood2816]

Sir my question is how to check regulator show the details

[@nathanrice1796]

Liked the tensioner tool.

[@mustafaar7899]

[@exsparky8090]

On a lot of modern vehicles is no alternator light on turning on ignition.

[@juancontre5858]

If someone can give some information I just put a new alternator but it's not putting out the proper amps reading on my multimeter it reads 1197 to 1225 it gas hard time starting also positive post gets hot n gauges go crazy battery warning comes on gauge reads between in the middle ab loo e to start it once then ha6to wait like three hours or till next day help please anyone October 2019 thanks

[@teresaterry4867]

You could have bought a bad alternator it happens all the time. Have it checked and they will give you a new one

[@andyhandyman2118]

super informative.

[@yosephhailu9685]

Nice job

[@stephenkuper9549]
