  10. Did I get a bad ALT?

    Posted

    im having the same issue with a 2002 impala, shuts off randomly, wont start some times, and gauges flip out on me, first though t was the ground , after checking and replaceing grounds , i still have the issue, got a new battery, same issue, new alt still no luck, was told it was my bcm computer, changed and programmed by dealer still no luck, now im going to do the pcm, then the passlock system. ill see what happens then, did alot of research seems that a huge amount of gm cars, chevy gm pontiac, and some other models all suffer from this , and the cure seems to be random. good luck with fixing it, ill be watching for a cure.

    damn

    I know of the computer issue but the guy I got this from used said he had it on his exact same malibu with zero issues

    WARNING Stupid question incoming...

    Did you check all your grounds? car not starting and then trying again and starting would sound like a bad ground or dying starter. When my engine ground was bad on my 98 malibu it made the gauges flicker and flash like a bitch. Thought it was the gauge cluster and had a dealership change it out 3 times. I had to take videos for the dealer.

    I have checked. Nothing has changed on my setup ground wise except for the replacement of my stock alt with this 320A DC Power one. And I actually just replaced the starter within the last year+ so I doubt it would be that

    So I got my new DC Power 320A Installed and for some reason I hear this constant whine noise. It isn't normal alt whine it is way louder and only goes away when I'm at 2k+ rpm. Anyone familiar with Alt issues?

    and secondly randomly 4-5 times on the way to work this morning the power would go completely out for a second and my gauges would act all weird and then it would power back on. Cuts my radio out and everything.

    Any light on this situation? Thanks!
