i'm wondering whats the problem is this problem starts when i on the radio.. its kenwood.. i used my car without using my radio for quite some time the problem didnt come.. but recently someone had on the radio on its stand by and the problem came yesterday again.. but when i off and start the car it becomes normal again.. |

My wife's 07 hatchback is having similar issues.
Intermittently her charging system or airbag warning light will come on, she says the headlights sometimes dim when driving at night (and sometimes work fine), and says her heater doesn't seem to work as well as it used to. No mention of problems with power steering, radio, etc. I checked the A27 connector CTScott mentioned, hers appears a bit different, but couldn't see any problems there. Anyone have any other suggestions? |

I checked the battery with a digital battery analyser at work, said it was good. Over 575 CCA, battery was putting out 12.3v w/ the engine off, at around 3k rpm it was slightly above 16v (high, I know, but wouldn't cause problems w/ dim lights, would it?)
Battery cables/terminals are clean and fuses are all good, ODB II reader returned no codes. The car was in to the dealer for servicing earlier and they said the alternator was bad and needed to be replaced. (the symptoms didn't seems to correlate to their solution in my head, anyway. I'm an electronics tech in the military, but in no means an expert at vehicle electrical systems) |

16 volts is quite high. I think the voltage regulator within the alternator is bad.

I would recommend checking the electrical board. couple of years ago i removed my ac fan to clean it and later that night my abs light turned on and some other stuff happened like the cabin light will turn on while braking ... etc. I took it to the service center i deal with and they have told me when i reconnected the fan i did it wrong which melted something and that was the cause of my trouble. I can not remember the issue exactly because it was long ago. I hope this could help.

When I changed out my main ruse shown in CTscotts picture where the white wire and black wire were it was totally corroded....since I cleaned it and put some dielectric grese on them it is better than ever.I also had to change the main fuse out since I blew half of it.Car puts out more V now than when it was new...stays steady all day long with my amp on and everything at 14v before it was 12.9v.

I changed the pump, put everything back together, it started up nice n quiet now finally but: Basically the only electrical devices that come on are the headlights. No tails, running lights, radio, heat n a/c, tire pressure light and P/S light are on. The battery light is NOT on so it is charging. Yes, I removed the alernator to do the job, of course, and NO I did not drop it or anything silly like that. This is the first time I I have ever had to work on this car. If it makes a difference, I had to do this job after the water pump pully becoming so wobby it must have siezed for a decond and snapped the belt off at 75MPH. Thanks for the help, anyone! |

I am thinking that you did not pull the battery connectors when removing the alternator? If that is the case you likely shorted the high current wire from the alternator to the battery popping one of the large fusible links that is molded into the positive battery terminal assembly.
