Got a question, Why is the batt/alt light not comming on. Alt is not working not charging. Also why do these civics fry alot of alts? It's a 1990 civic si hatch 1.5.

Cheers

Re: Dead Alt

civic alternators are generally very weak so yeah they die too fast when so much demand gets put on it. not sure why the light wont come on tho.
