Be sure to check the wiring that connects to the alternator. A slight or intermittant disconnect could cause all kinds of problems. A loose fitting or bad wire might work for a while, then work itself loose. The difficulty in changing the alternator can also cause the wires to be pulled on, possibly damaging them in a way that is not obvious or consistant. The mechanics I have used in the past and present have all warrantied the parts and labor, if a problem arose, they would fix no charge.
 
Check those wires and grounds!!!

Most large chain parts stores can read and/or clear the codes on the vehicle computer, no charge. Normally the code will clear itself if the problem goes away.

It depends on what you are capable of in the way of repairs. Check fuses and check the power switches - they pop out of the arm console easily without taking apart the door. If one has a bad connection, niether the driver or passenger side switches will work. If that does not help, then use a repair manual (if you feel comfortable with it) and take the door apart and take a look.

If it is humming a Looney Toone don't complain.
Seriously, it probably is the tires. The tires tend to cup on these vans if not rotated very often. When they are cupped they hum.

Where would I find the cable. Can it be accessed without a hoist?

Another thing to look at would be a battery with a internal short. Load test it!!!
 
My 88 Escort just recently lost the alternator and it was related to the battery going out.

2000 Venture Fuel guage/dome lights/hesitation by 123venture
Dec 05, 2005 (12:11 pm)
Reply
I'm having problems with my fuel guage moving from empty to full. This normally happens when I'm down to a quarter tank of gas.
 
Also have no interior lights at all. If I open my doors or use the switch on the dash board there are no lights at all. (Dome light) all other are fine. JUST MY DOME LIGHTS DON'T WORK.
 
I also have hesitation when I acellerate and can't figure out what it is. Wires have been changed but not the plugs to hard to get at. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
 
thanks
