Alternator construction and testing Video

[spider2081]

Here is a link to a video on alternator construction and testing. It is close to an hour long. I think the information is pretty well presented and worth watching. A good refresher of maintenance tips never hurts. At one point in the video a test is made using the voltmeter to measure the voltage from the battery end of the alternator to battery cable. This procedure is a great test for any wire in our cars especially the battery cables.
