That's what I assume, 100A Alt.


thats pretty low amperage for that amount of power but shouldn't be causing your car to turn off, trouble shoot your battery and alt like the above posts said.

if you do get a new alt be sure to do a big 3 upgrade, that will stabilize your voltage to some extent

dont spend money buying a fluke...
just d/c you sound system and try it...  if the car is fine with it disconnected trouble shoot by disconnecting each part 1 at a time
if the car still wont start its obviously not your sound system


Lol? Everyone should have a multimeter anyways. Plus its good to know if your battery/alternator are functioning properly.

Funny how using the multimeter would have answered this!

Glad we could help ;)
