scratching my head here, my battery has died multiple times and my alternator doesnt charge it while the engine is running. i got a new stock alernator(95 amps) and i slow charged my battery overnight but in the morning i still had a low battery gauge while the engine was running. now i charge the battery every night but the the needle on the battery gauge never gets above the "n" in normal. i took out the battery and cleaned the terminals with sandpaper. when i drive longish distances i can actually watch the battery needle go down, especially at night.
the first time i was driving at night and my lights got dim, i lost power to my interior electronics and tachometer, and my engine sound like it was about to blow up and or meltdown. that spoke to me of alternator problems but the new one doesnt help at all.
I took it to ford but they tested the battery and said it didnt have a full charge and everything looked good.
why is my engine turning into an electricity zombie?
