I recently had my stock alternator and regulator replaced with o.e.m. parts...
everything worked fine for about 200 miles, then i put in a stereo which sat in the dash box. I'm not sure exactly what constant power the spliced into but things looked fine when at the stereo shop. Till i had to drive home and had the lights on, when i exited the freeway it just shuttered and died...from there on whenever i am at a red light or have to brake to idle speed the car just looses power, even after i have taken the power to the stereo out...I read somewhere that the idle can have a effect on the charging? any help would be great, btw my temp gauge just started to act funny around the same time, it always shows about 1/2 the temp it is, but gas and alt gauge work fine...
