Have the charging system checked. Possibly loose or corroded wiring, a loose alternator belt, or a bad alternator.

Is there a fuse that keeps the alternator charging?
No. The short summary is that there usually is a fuse or circuit breaker in the line coming out of the alternator that protects the alternator from a sudden surge in power from some outside source and which also protects the engine's electrical parts from a sudden surge that might somehow come from the alternator (very doubtful this would happen). But that fuse doesn't keep the alternator charging in the strict sense of the phrase. What stops an alternator from charging is internal parts failure such as the burn out of a rectifier, bearing failure or the belt which drives the alternator failing or coming loose and slipping excessively. Short of failures such as these an alternator will keep on charging as long as the belt is turning its pulley and causing the rotor inside the alternator to turn.
Is it the alternator when i have no power on my subaru?
If you have no power to anything, and your battery isn't dead, then you more likely have a bad ground. If the battery is dead/keeps dying, there's a good likelihood that the alternator isn't charging it adequately.
Why is your 93 saburban shaking and the battery keeps dying?
Sounds like the alternator is not charging the battery up / WORKING check charging system. Charge battery to 12.8 volts and then start engine and hook volt meter to battery and it should read 13.8 to 14.3 volts. If it don't then replace alternator. Also need to make sure the alternator belt is tight.

What does it mean when a 1991 Pontiac Trans Am GTA's battery keeps going dead right after a jump?
It means that the alternator is shot or the battery is shot, you need to get the charging system checked out.
What does charging system mean?
All cars have a battery make the electrical components function. The charging system consists of a battery,starter an alternator and a voltage regulator. The battery turns the starter over causing the engine to run. As the engine is running the alternator produces electricityto keep it running. The voltage regulator keeps the current regulated so that the battery does not overcharge. ok, the forst answer was nearly correct except the starter motor is not part of the charging systm. the charging sytem consists of, the battery, the alternator,or generator,and thevoltage regulator. the voltage regulator is sometimes built into the alternator on newer cars ,where as they all used to be an extra equipment bolted onto firewall or inside fender

Your 1997 ford ranger battery light is low and the battery keeps dying is it the alternator?
Battery light usually means alternator not charging. Most common solutions would be be a bad alternator, bad connection, or loose alternator belt. If the battery and alt test ok than check the connections to the alternator and battery. You may also have a battery drain (something that is staying on and killing the battery)
On a 1972 Chevy blazer with a 350 in the charging seystem ran through the starter?
no the charging system consists of the battery and the alternator. the battery being the starting point of the system. the battery provides the initial power. the alternator then keeps your battery charged while the motor is running. the starter gets its power from the battery but has no relation to the charging system. the starter has but only one function and that is to power up upon initial start up and turn your motor over to get it running. hope that helps you out a little bit.
