Changed alternator and battery still losing power due to squealing, belt speed isnt up causing alternator to not pull enough juice to keep battery what should i do
Alternator belt squeal? The alternator meets the demands of the battery,or tries its best. If alt. is loading down it's more than likely due to high output. High output could be due to heavy loading of battery or the battery itselfis demanding too much.
Charge rate should be 23.6 to 14.2 volts. at 12v the alternator is pouring out some major amps and won't last very long. Have your battery tested and chk the fluid levels. Cable connections clean and tight? Any off road lighting added? It's not the alternator, YET!
If the belt is 3 yrs old or older, change it. If it has oil or anti-freeze or grease on it, change it. If new, add more tension to the belt.
