If the battery light has been coming on and off on a 1999 Ford Expedition does it need a new alternator or just a new serpentine belt?

I just had to replace my alternator and the battery light was coming on when I had slow engine speed (under 1000RPM)...It gave me little warning and completely failed after 20 miles, then the battery went dead and , of course, the engine stopped... Replace the Alternator before you get stranded as what happened to myself... check the connectors and wires first. make sure their clean and tight. if beltis tight it should be ok. have alternator tested.

What happens if your alternator doesn't work?

It will seem like it is your battery. It may start at first but eventually will die and you will attempt to use jumper cables to restart it but as soon as you disconnect the cables it will die again. The only fix is to replace the alternator , when i replaced the one in my truck i did it myself for about 140.00 If this helped please recommend :>)

How do you remove and replace the alternator on a 2000 Mazda MPV?

The alternator on my 1990 MPV failed and I tried to renew it myself, it seemed like a pretty simple task as the alternator is easily accessed. When I loosened the belt and removed the mounting bolts I found that the alternator will not slide off the mounting bar as it is blocked (just barely enough) by the power steering unit. I did not want to remove that unit so I simply put it all back and paid a local Chevrolet dealership the $65 dollars and I am good to go. It is simply to much to do without a lift.
