did i mention TIGHT!

same thing happened to me last year. i thought i was losing my mind because i did an alternator check and everything was fine.



I have a nother post up here. Had the same problem. My connector needed to be replaced. Just wasn't tight. Battery wasn't getting a charge. If the Auto Zone tells you the alt is fine. Just spend 5 bucks on connectors. What a diffrence.

It turned out to be the battery. It was defective and was pretty much dead...returned the battery i got and got a replacement. All is well now.
