[QUOTE="3Series Banger, post: 4466702, member: 577261"] I have a '99 Honda Accord V6 coupe. THe other day, was extremely hot (96 degrees) here in Northern California, so I turned on my AC the whole day while playing my system. I'm currently running 1 15" TC-3000 1 Sundown 1500D Rainbow germ comps Diamond D7152 So ~1800 watts. As I was saying, driving with the AC on eventually started making a weird whining sound that I assumed to be my alternator. While driving at night, I noticed my lights getting considerably dimmer and dimmer as it went. Eventually, I turned off my car to take a look at all the connections. Check. All good with the connections. Next thing you know when I try to turn my car on, the engine won't crank. I jump started my battery because I figured the battery was drained, and the car worked. From then on I assumed my alternator/battery was failing, but not completely sure. While driving home the electrical system died out on me, and now I am forced to tow my car back home. Anybody know what is wrong? My stock alt is ~100amps if I am not mistaken. Help! [/QUOTE]
