well yeah absolutely
Vehicles run DC. 13.5 - 14+ volts at battery is o/k. Shows alternator is charging but won't tell you amp output. If the battery is bad you will wear out the alternator as it trys to keep a bad battery charged (it will work itself to death)
It would only run as long as the battery had a sufficient charge.
The battery will just run down and the engine will stop.
The car light? YES! Leaving your car light on WILL make your battery run out. Things like leaving your car door open if the light is on because it is open will cause the lgiht to Mae your car battery run out. There is a big difference between shorted out a car battery and running the battery down. Lighting in itself won't short a battery out but will run it down.
If stuck open the car will run cold. If stuck closed the car will run hot.
If the alternator fails, it is no longer keeping the battery charged and your engine is running on nothing but battery power. Once the battery runs down, your engine will no longer run.
You car battery, or the connections to it, are bad. It can run on the alternator once engine is going.
A bad fuel cap can make your check engine light go on. It shouldn't cause your car to run rough or die.
No, a bad crankshaft sensor would cause the car not to start and run.
no a bad fuel pump will not make your run hot it will cause it not run like it should and eventually stop running at all
Check for a bad fusable link at alternator
No it can not. If the belt is missing that could cause it to run hot.
