I have changed my alternator four different times and my car keeps draining its battery. The lights dim until it shuts off. I'm trying to find out where the fusible link is so I can check it to see if there's damage to it because I don't know what's wrong with it. Please help. Thank you

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.

I attached a section of a wiring schematic for you to see. There is a fusible link that runs between the starter and the alternator which supplies power to the alt. It is the B+ wire on the alt that should have 12 volts.

Here is a link that shows how to use a volt meter. Also, I added testing wiring and test light instructions.

Check for power to that point and let me know what you find.
