I thought i did too, 100% battery was right, i don't think was a link ?was wires from alternator i admit i was chicken to touch wires, been shocked lol ill try to get a pic tomorrow
Om the 94 the battery sits.om passenger side , the relay aits.close on the inner fender and i seen wire from it to alternator, the smoke came from relay or so? White smoke as soon as it.was.grounded.on the battery
No idea what wired wrong all went back in same place unless the rebuilt alternator is bad? 3 wires to tje alt. Only go in one way, battery connections are almost dummy proof plus i doubled.checked unless it.was do to that boot not.being on ?
Where can i buy a new fusible link ?
fusible link can be found normally among other fuses. be sure to get the same gauge. I think 12 is stock. If the same gauge is not just available for you, it's safe to use a slightly smaller gauge (14 is likely fine), but don't use a thicker one. resplice 2 new sections of same length just as you see on your car. If any carbonization formed on the thick orange/black cable clean that. I'm curious what you find out about your alternator.
I totally appreciate everyone's help. I'll let.you know when i take alternator in
thanks for update. As user bkennedy stated , cables must be swapped/shorted somewhere then. If you could provide a photo that includes both battery terminals & relay in the frame, and possibly another photo that shows all cable/wire connections on the alternator, that could be helpful. Did fuse #16 blow btw?
The battery is new too i was just driving monday or tuesday when it just died on me and wouldnt start again towed home check to see if lights worked and no then i knew battery wasnt getting charged and toom old alternator in to autozone and.said was no good so i got new battery and alternator and i took my time plugging it all in proper double checked and after connecting the pos. I went to connect ground to battery the fuseable link smoke and fizzed like sound?
