[QUOTE="adulbrich, post: 8570917, member: 661255"] [SIZE=36px]This is what [/SIZE][SIZE=36px]murdered[/SIZE][SIZE=36px] your alternator!!!!![/SIZE] Even low batteries (11-12v) you should fully charge before installing. The alternator was loaded down completely trying to charge a VERY dead battery. Then, you "cranked the stereo"..... Also, the word you're looking for is "weak", not "week" The van "completely died" because your battery was SO DEAD it couldn't run the vehicle's basic electrical system. This was completely user error, not a faulty part. Fully charge your battery with a battery charger [SIZE=36px]SLOWLY[/SIZE] and then have it load tested. I'm guessing it is so low because you just kept driving the car when the alternator died the first time. My guess is the battery is toast too, unless it's less than a year old. Also, the word you're looking for is "whether", not "weather". That's just my inner [COLOR=black]a[/COLOR]sshole/grammar nazi talking [/QUOTE]
