Tony Radford Tony do you have a mini stater on the car?? If yes this only needs about 100 -140 amps to crank over the motor. Your battery could have a bad cell and still have enough power to crank up the motor. If the battery is bad with a bad cell. It will have the charging system running crazy. The voltage regulator in some cases to stop charging the system to prevent added damage to the wiring system. Take the battery to a pepboys or auto zone. If the battery is bad, go to the largest cca that is the same size as what you have now. i am still staying with a charging issue after the battery is replaced. If the power wires are in a steel tube, Cut the wiring harness out of this. I hope the wiring harness is taped inside and will not rub inside the tube. Will wait until battery is tested. Rick L.
