Oh hellz ya! It doesn't matter if the system is big or not, if the alternator is on its way out, it means it can't give enough power to keep up with the demand, and the system is an extra load on the alternator, big or small, it's extra work.cWs306 wrote: my alternator is going.. would that be the reason?
