How do you know if your alternator is out in a 2004 Ford Freestar?
I just went through this with my Windstar - stopped by my favorite Autozone and they did a pretty thorough electrical test, including the alternator and battery. Most of the auto parts stores offer free testing. Easiest thing to do is remove the positive connection to your battery if you Freestar stalls....Alternator is no good(just happened to me)
Does the 1994 Cherokee jeep sport have an alternator light on the inside panel?
When my jeep cherokee alternator went bad, the check engine light came on and I didnt have a clue what was going on until my volt guage was reading in the red zone. When I replaced my alternator, the light went off. So in my opinion i wouldnt consider the check engine light as a alternator light.

How do you know your alternator needs replacing?
In my case the bearing went bad and "froze" making a loud noise and making the fan belt smoke. If it does not make a noise, check the voltmeter on your dash - failure to charge could indicate the alternator is not working, but I think others things are more likely . It should be easy for a mechanic to test to see if the alternator is charging.
