Confirmed my diode was out.

Bought new Alternator.

Bolted right in.

Small wire on small stud, large wire on large stud with black rubber cover, bolted bracket for main wiring harness, reseated the ... multi-plug.


Reattached the battery, and now nothing at all. First tried the remote lock since I was sitting ther*e. No lights. No headlights. No horn. Didn't risk ignition. :wtf2: :ohno:


I checked the alternator fuse. Looks good.

What order should I check what? :gotme



Any help is welcome. I owe my (so far failed) installation to Nicoclub forums in the information to get the swap process. Things were running so well... maybe you can get me the small step forward to completion.

I'll be very grateful. :bowrofl: :mike

Probably a dumb question but is the battery dead? did you check it?

Can you describe what the truck was doing before changing the alt?? Was it cranking? Did you disconnected the battery before doing the swap?
