Default Re: charging issues

2 dumb things that have happened to me:

1) I had an alternator case and alternator bracket powdercoated. Turns out the alternator would not charge because it was not getting a good ground.

2) A bad belt tensioner wasnt tightening the belt up enough. Even though the alternator was spinning, the belt was also slipping and wouldnt spin it fast enough to charge.
