Flashing battery indicator

THE ALTERNATOR MAY BE WORKING---OR MAYBE NOT!

YOU MAY HAVE A FUSE OR CONNECTION PROBLEM PREVENTING THE ALTERNATOR FROM CHARGING

EVEN JUMP STARTING SOMEONE ELSE'S CAR COULD CAUSE A PROBLEM LIKE THIS

VERIFY YOU HAVE A PROBLEM BY TESTING YOUR BATTERY VOLTAGE (CAR OFF) AND ALTERNATOR'S VOLTAGE, AGAIN AT THE BATTERY (CAR RUNNING)

EVEN A BRAND NEW ALTERNATOR CAN GO BAD IMMEDIATELY---SOME SEEM TO LAST THE LIFE OF THE CAR. IT'S MAN-MADE AND HAS NO SET LIFESPAN

THE MEDIC

I'M UNABLE TO LOOK UP YOUR VEHICLE IN "MITCHELL I" OR AT U.S. AUTO PARTS STORES

THE GENERAL RULE OF THUMB IS TO GO BACK WITH THE ORIGINAL SIZE

IF YOU HAVE INSTALLED "BIG-TIME JUICE DRAWING" COMPONENTS LIKE A BIG OLE AMP--LIGHTS--SIRENS--ETC. THE BIGGER ONE MAY BE BETTER TO HAVE

MANY TIMES. THE "$$$" DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 100 AMP AND 120 AMP, MIGHT INFLUENCE YOUR DECISION ALSO!

I DID LOOK UP ALTERNATORS FOR SEVERAL 2005 VEHICLES IN THE U.S. AT THE autozone. Com SITE

NOW-A-DAYS, YOU GOTTA COMPUTER AND SO MUCH OTHER ELECTRICAL CRAP

A BIG F-250 DIESEL PICK-UP TRUCK USES A 135 AMP

A CHEVROLET MALIBU CAR IS USING A 115 AMP

THEN YOU GOT ME AND MY TWO PRESENT JEEPS (OF SEVEN TOTAL OVER THE YEARS, I'VE HAD NOTHING ELSE), "WILLY" AND "MR. JEEP". BOTH ARE DAILY DRIVERS, MY PRIMARY TRANSPORTATION. ONE IS 66 YEARS YOUNG, THE OTHER IS STILL A BABY, HE'S ONLY 35 YEARS OLD

MY 1946 WILLYS GOT CHANGED FROM A 6 VOLT GENERATOR TO A "WHOPPING" 63 AMP 12 VOLT ALTERNATOR (STANDARD FOR 1976-1986 CJ 5 & 7s)

I UPGRADED MY 1977 CJ 5 FROM A 63 AMP TO A 90 AMP, WHEN I INSTALLED MY "TRAIN HORN" AND "12 VOLT AIR COMPRESSOR" TO RUN IT.

I ALSO ADDED A "SECONDARY HOMEMADE HEATER" W/ A STRONG BLOWER MOTOR AND HEATER CORE.I DON'T LIKE TO BE COLD. WHEN YOU TURN THIS ONE ON, YOU'D THINK YOU WERE IN AN OVEN, NOT IN A TRADITIONAL JEEP!

EVEN THOUGH I DON'T HAVE A COMPUTER IN EITHER JEEP, I DO NOTICE MY LIGHTS DON'T DIM OR FLICKER WHEN I TURN ON MY "BIG ENERGY EATERS"

KEEP US POSTED ON WHAT YOU DECIDE. MOST LIKELY, YOU'LL DECIDE ON GETTING A JEEP!

THE MEDIC

THE WORD WAS NOT VOCABULARY UNTIL THE JEEP CAME ALONG IN 1940---NONE OF US WERE 'ADVENTUROUS UNTIL WE EXPERIENCED SEEING THIS OR A SIMILAR VIEW, WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD

GIVE THE ALTERNATOR A FEW DAYS.....THE JEEP THING WILL NEVER LEAVE YOUR MIND!

LEMME KNOW HOW THINGS PAN OUT
