How can I test my alternator to see if it is discharging my battery?

You can have the alternator tested free of charge at just about any major auto parts store. By the way, a bad alternator will not "discharge" a battery - the alternator's function is to provide the charge to the battery. If the alternator is faulty, then it is not providing the charge necessary to keep other components from discharging the battery. I had the alternator tested and it was charging. If the alternator has a bad diode, it will discharge the battery. I replaced the alternator and everything is fine.

Battery won't charge?

Either the battery is bad and won't accept a charge or the alternator is not putting a charge into the battery. Have the battery tested. You can hook up an inexpensive volt meter to the battery while the car is running. You should see from 13.5 to 14.5 volts if the alternator is working properly. If it is less than 13.5 volts then the alternator is not charging.

Dodge Durango 2000 8 cylinder battery not accepting charge will only run if connected to running vehicle alternator tested good any ideas?

Has the battery been tested, does the alternator on the Durango try to charge?... If the truck runs with the battery but the battery doesn't take or hold a charge, it has to be the battery being bad or extremely bad terminals so that the charge can't reach the battery. Age of the battery doesn't matter, a fairly new one can still go bad.


After getting the alternator on your 1990 Chevy truck tested still won't charge you've checked the battery and the ends all the fuses and connectionsand you've tried grounding the alternator?

Repair or Replace or have the alternator tested off the vehical to try and isolate the trouble. ANSWER Check your wiring including your battery cables. Sometimes cables can look okay but be corroded inside the insulation, especially the ground strap.
