Charging issue???
87 hatch ea81, When Im driving at low speeds, my battery light is very dim, and will get brighter, and my lights will dim as well, and then get brighter when i step on the gas, and the battery light will go off when accel, or just reving up. I changed my belt, because the old one was a little loose and old. What do you think it could be? Alternator? or battery?

87 hatch standard.ea81. Good alternator donor. Guaranteed good.it is a different model though. But went right on. Was working.g perfect on friends hatch. Yeah that's what I thought it should stay running
-
what causes this. .
The battery wasn't really new. It was just a donor battery. And she was half dead. But we had her hooked up on the cables for at least 10 minutes. So it should have had enough juice to at least stay running. Well see How it works today with a full charge. .

I put in a new battery And alternator. my battery light stays on. And the won't let any charge take place. Fire up no problem. As soon as the jumper cables come off. Car dies. I'm no electrical worker. But I'm fearing I have a bad electrical somewhere. Checked all grounds. Nothing I can see is bad. .. where to go next. Any suggestions. Ever had this issue before..

what causes this. .
I was driving this morning to work. everything has been fine with the car. Then all of a sudden. My lights started dimming to almost nothing. . So then it shut off. Battery is dead. I looked at my grounds there all good clean and tight. So what's next alternator. Upon inspection of alternator I noticed that the little rubber piece that goes over to protect the screw. Has been melted and the wires looked like it had gotten hot. Not the plastic plug but theother one in the back. . Is the symptoms of a bad alternator??. Car isvroken down on the side of the road. In brier. Please help. . 87 hatch ea81
