My car died on the way home from work about 10 days ago. checked and replaced battery since it was about 3 to 3.5 years old. did some more checking and looks like the alternator is bad. checked output voltage and had the local parts store check it. It was bad. replaced and about a week later the alt. died again. we checked it again and it was bad. replaced wwith a second alt. and checked the voltages on the digital read out and it stays around 12.5 to 13v. I'm thingking there is a fuseable link between the two or the computer module may be killing the alt.
