car keeps dying

[Rieyahn2533]

so i got my s13 w/ sr swap about 7 days ago and i did the sleepy eye mod and now my car keeps dying and wont run for a long time with the head lights on or with any lights on i changed the battery and it was running good for almost the whole day and then started dying again. so i guess i need help. does this sound like the alternator is going out? does anyone have a sr20det alternator they would like to sell? lmk thanks

Check your alternator output, voltage, and wave form, it may have failed. I would also check all the connections on the alternator, you may have forgotten to tighten somthing.

It sounds like you grounded something and it is putting a draw on the car. Check the wiring that you did and make sure that you did not short something

If the altanator is bad you might be able to take it and have it rebuilt

if i did have a wire shortage what should i do? and how do i get the alternator rebuilt?

thanks to everyone thats been helping me out
