just test it on the car with a multimeter. volts should read 14v-14.5v with the vehicle running

For a total and complete test bring it to an alternator and starter repair shop. They can/will test every aspect on it. Auto parts stores only test output voltage.

Okay i guess i should put the new belt in and see if it works, and get a volmeter. I dont' know if we have any alterntor/repair shops in winnipeg but i will look around to find out. Its just so annoying when most shops don't even have parts for dsm's.

autozone should have the correct cable. Back in the day they didnt, but in the last year or so they got the right stuff.

I don't think we have any autozones here we just have part source in Winnipeg
