kevingr Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 check battery terminal is fixed fine and clean. Then check alternator, means start car and remove battery to see if car is running. If car still runs that means alternator is fine too and if it stalls and switch of that mean it was running on battery than on alternator that means you have numbered hrs of drive and rush to workshop for change of alternator.
