New alternator????
Driving to work the battery light came on, ammeter indicated discharge, and tach was not working. Pulled over and the belt was still on and the electrical connections were tight. Do you think the alternator quit just like that? The truck has shown no precurser to a degraded charging system.
My question is does this sound like a bad alternater or is there something else I can check? My truck is in the parking lot at work, and if it does start, I hope to drive it home and work on it in the garage.
any ideas
Thanks
Jim
