would the ground on the alternator not being connected drain the batterybecause when i removed the alt the first time to get it checked it wasnt connected, theres no bolt for it to be put onnissans13240sx wrote:theres a ground on your alternator, make sure its hooked up. check belt tension because thats probably where your squeaking noise is coming from. Check the 75amp alt. fuse in the fuse box behind the battery. Check that the ground for your negative cable is tight on the inake manifold. Check all other engine grounds.
