So have any of you even contacted Mechman about this yet? It sure does make me feel a whole lot better knowing I am not the only one. Any ideas what causes this issue?

they told me to send it in so they can take a look at it. I offered to even send in one of my alts so they could take a look at it and make sure there was nothing different about it than theirs. I dont expect there to be its an iraggi.

THERE IS NO BUILD LOG!

Yeah mine are Iraggi alts also.. I bought what what supposed to be 4 300a alts...turns out I got two 220s and two 320s. The 220s they said will be fine but the 320s he said will burn up in a matter of time, plus they only have like 40a at idle. They said they could build them into 270s for like $120 which is what i will be doing.

Ive been having a weird issue with my alternator from mechman not even charging my batteries, could be my car not wanting so much power though, im going to see what i can do about getting credit back so i can get a different alt for another car

It almost HAS to be a problem with the alts, don't it? Have you tried an external voltage regulator? Hopefully Mechman helps you get it figured out. But to me from the outside point of view, this does not look good on Iraggi alts. Actually I have seen a lot of people online have problems with them. Isn't that why Steve changed his out from Iraggi to Mechman???

Anyway, good luck, hope to see you get it figured out! :drink40:

It's really bizarre that the lamp wire is getting so hot unless there is too much resistance? (edit: sorry it's the outside wire so not L just saw yellow and had assumed lamp)

1) Iraggi is done

2) Iraggi (Dom) ripped an assload of people off

You can't say ENOUGH bad things about Dom and Iraggi as far as I'm concerned. I had 3 alts die, 1 due to his OD pulley being too small, 1 because he had sand blasted the case with the damn bearings in it so there was sand INSIDE the bearings, and the third went up in a plume of smoke after playing it full tile for under 1 minute (I drove 2 miles, jumped on it for not even a minute and it went up in smoke literally). His dual alt kit didn't fit, he kept it, and didn't refund me for that or my belt not to mention the cost associated with shipping alts back and forth three times. Fuck him

Ami you have extensive knowledge on the wiring. My hoe has only 1 wire so its easy. My mechman harness works fine. Vcm took a shit but that's another story. On your guys years I'm assuming yellow wire is sense and white lamp? So why not just unhook blue and green. Meaning pull them out of actual plug. Also op take factory plug or avbm and plug it into 2nd alternator alone and see if it works. If it doesn't or starts to get hot then you know its the alternator

It's P I think (looks to be far outside wire and if I remember right from outside in it goes PLIS), I just saw yellow in his video and assumed L (the stock harness's I have use yellow as L this one is obviously different).
