Which brand (Alternator) is original OEM to my 05 Civic
The label I worked off of my alternator. Would it be Denso or mishubishi?
The battery light was on for the past 3 days. Then today I was driving on the street and my radio turned off. My dashboard turned off yet my car was still running. Pretty sure it was on limp mode. All my gauges were turned off. Even my mileage counter. I couldn't even roll my window up. I tried making it home but my car died at a red light. I want to buy the original alternator. That way I have no problems in the future. It was a hassle taking it off. The denso is 100amps yet the mishubshi one is 70 amps .

Ended up getting a reman Denso for $220 at Napa.
Even though my car is on stands. Is it normal for my tire to spin freely while removing the front tire ? I figured since the car is on park, the front wheels should lock jnto place.

Normal. With the car in park and off the ground the drive wheels will spin freely in opposite directions of each other. Putting the transmission in park stops the drive gears but does not stop the differential.
