    I have a mechanic who was replacing my alternator, he claims that I ruined all of his work by putting my foot on the accelerator after he “successfully”got my new alternator around the belt. I literally started my car gave it gas and he says my belt popped bc of that, ive never had this problem with my car if anyone can tell me if it was actually me or did he never have the belt in place?

    I have a CL 500 and whenever you have to change one “easy” part you have to disassemble 10 other parts :/

    I was able to replace alternator and battery with new ones but still not charging battery. I disconnect battery and engine turns off, I check with meter and reads 12.5 v with engine on but that's what the battery reads too so nothing higher when engine is on. Can this regulator prevent power or alternator from charging battery? On Town and Country 2011.

    One question is the same in a Ford Ranger sport the battery turns on on the dashboard but it is not the battery

    Man I gotta say I've watched many videos for my car from oil changes, breaks, sensors and tune up. Your video was the easiest and most descriptive for dummies, really appreciate the time and effort.
