i just installed this rebuilt altenator i got yesterday from a local shop my old one stopped charging, it looked just like my old alternator but the mouting holes didnt align so the guy put the old nose in. he tested it in front of me it was reading 13.6 to 14v and 110 amps.
jump started the car and checked the reading on the battery it was reading 13.5v let it run for like 10 minutes 13.6v moved the car a couple of feet and parked it back.. then i started hearing my ic fan run faster and louder and saw the alt cable that goes on the starter solenoid smoke. checked voltage and it was at 16v ??
could it be something else or did this alternator go bad too ??
