Auto Parts: 1993 Nissan Altima Alternator, nissan altima, altima


Question
The battery does not charge. It would seem to be the alternator but are there any other reasons such as fuses etc that would cause the battery not to charge??
Thanks very much for your time.

Answer
Hi Dennis,

Not unless the battery has a dead cell or two, but even then it would house enough energy to at least try and turn the engine over. The alternator is in complete control of charging the battery and running any accessories as well as the engine management when the motor is running. If your battery isn't charging, the alternator is probably the culprit.

Thanks for the question, I hope this information was helpful to you.
