#16 of 17 Re: Alternator up-grade QUESTION PLEASE READ AND HELP? [slashman] by vetteman_42 Jul 26, 2009 (12:22 pm)
Replying to: slashman (Jul 24, 2009 11:56 am) I appreciate the kind thought. If you live in the Tidewater area in VA, contact Browning's Alternator in Va.Beach. They know their stuff & are honest people, and should be able to help you. I had them rebuild the alternator in my '88 4Runner recently; it works great! I've also had them rebuild my 4Runner's heater-blower-motor, & previously they helped me with a problem on an '85 Vette. They can fix anything that's electric & spins in anything that moves on land or water.

Replying to: tripp2ga (Aug 03, 2007 2:29 pm) I have a similar problem but in a gigantic proportion! 2000 4runner 6 cyl. My son installed a new stereo and it worked fine. Then we decided to pull the unit and install another and the next unit did not work at all. I checked all connections and everything was fine, but the 12v. constant line to the radio only was 8v. When I ran a new 12v the radio will work fine. In addition the car has the following: The clock is very dim and inside cabin light don't work. The parking lights on the front don't work. The bright lights don't work, but the brights light in flash mode. When you turn off the ignition then turn on the lights all the relays click,click,click but lights won't come on. blue Brights indicator light on instrument panel won't light.   I have spent two days following circuits on the thing and have the following: Constant voltage line to the radio tests at 8v. and drops to 2v. when any cabin lights or door switch goes on(lights don't come on) I have checked all light switches and circuits for shorts. Relays for running lights and brights ok. Light control switch (low,flash,brights) ok.
