[95boostedGSX]

hey guys i have a 95 gsx and for some reason my charging system is not working i checked alternator and is good my battery is also good and my alternator choke fuse is good also i replace all battery cables still not the issue.

could i have a loose ground wire are could the wires from my alternator to fuse box be no good.

If i could please get some suggestions i would appericate it alot.

could be bad ground, would definately check that, would definately voltage drop the charge-back wire for the alternator. another check would be is your belt tight enough, they dont alway squeel when they are too loose.

Check your alternator fuse and double check all your connections.

Check and clean all the grounds spots, Even Sand them for better contact.

It's more like a ground issue.

You do have the long ground wire connected to the starter bolt and the short one connected to the body. And you do have both connected to the battery terminal? If there isn't any rust in the hole or on the bolt there is really no reason to grind paint off. It will ground thru the threads in the hole as it was meant to.

Of course, He doesn't needs to sand them.
But, If he is having problems with ground.
The best way to kill that issue, is to sand all spots to make sure everything is good.

Other wise, he has to know very well what he is doing, concerning ground conditions.

If he miss one point, then he is messed up.
