Alternator problem?
The alternator wasn't charging the battery so I took a close look at the alternator and discovered that the white power wire was melted at the solder joint to the connector. What do I need to look for as to a possible cause? I'm taking the alternator to NAPA to have it checked in the AM and will buy a heavier duty connector (maybe it had cracked and caused a short). I'll also follow the wire to the extent possible to see if it has shorted somewhere. Any other thoughts? I'm also concerned that the Autolite voltage regulator could have been damaged. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, John
