[QUOTE="CWT, post: 378455, member: 552399"] Need to what year and make of truck you have. Have you already changed the alternator and it's still having problems? If your truck is an older one, the alternator was probably on its way out already; voltage regulator probably quit from the load. Good time to upgrade. Also make sure ALL of your grounds (Alternator, battery, amps, engine ground strap) are in good order. A bad enough main ground can cause a feed-back to the alternator and kill it. With it "starting only when it wants to", sounds like a bad connection someware; either that, or your starter might be on its way out too. [/QUOTE]
