(IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) got the new alternator and decided to cut back the plastic sheeting around the alternator wires to see how much damage then burned up diode had done.
i guess a lot of current while draining the battery can really produce some heat ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) so, now the $432 dollar question, is there a replacement harness for this or do i have to either get a complete new engine harness or try to replace each wire individually? they're pretty much burned all the way into the main harness. i cut out the worst, but the insulation where i cut them was still very hard and brittle, so i'm guessing the whole of the wires is toast ... this is on the 3.6L engine, btw. ...
