I'm gonna move this to the 'general tech' area so more people are likely to notice it & respond. The coil should not be related to your problem. Exactly how did you check the alternator?  It really sounds like your alternator is NOT OK. _____________________________ '03 Accord & '07 Civic '01 Saab 9³ & '05 9²x (in reply to eltib3) Post #: 3

Start pulling fuses until the 24 amp load goes down.  See if it'll charge up then. _____________________________ '03 Accord & '07 Civic '01 Saab 9³ & '05 9²x (in reply to eltib3) Post #: 6
