    if you mean removing the negative battery clamp when the engine is running, then the answer is yes. the alternator should be the one providing the electrical power needs of the vehicle when the engine is running and not the battery, so disconnecting the battery with the engine running is a means to test the alternator.

    I've heard some trick of placing the screw driver's tip at the center of the alternator and if it get magnetized then they say that it is functioning . . . not sure though if that is true but induction might really generate some electromagnet.

    pwede lang yan sa old school systems

    sa mga modern vehicle systems marami nang modules na pwedeng maapektuhan pag nag spike ang alternator ( maaring masira ang module)


    pag diy kailangan nyo volt meter

    * idle ( without load)= around 13v- 14.8 v okey yan

    full load ( head lights ,A/C defoggers , radio ON ) at least 13v * idle ,ok

    kagabi nga pala pagka start ko ng makina (4d56 diesel adventure) may maingay na squeeking sound kapag inaapakan gas pedal(binuksan ko hood at suspect ko galing sa alternator) , kapag inaapakan din gas pedal ay lumalakas ang headlight..
    e nabasa ko nga tong trick, ginawa ko kanina umaga, inistart ko engine tapos tinanggal ko negative terminal sa battery, tapos after 30 seconds siguro, AYUN! namatay bigla ang makina.. tapos inistart ko ulit, ayon sa amp meter gauge ko, nakalagay lang sa zero kahit na naka ON ang headlights at radio ko tapos ayon, hindi na nagcha charge ang alternator nasa zero lang..

    ano gagawin ko mga sir???? help..

    joseph,
    in an effort to educate the blind public about the principles and theory of the automotive charging system, please log on to http://www.bcae1.com/charging.htm. these things were not discovered yesterday. guesswork leads to unnecessary and expensive mistakes. use the best tool designed by mankind. this is just the tip of the iceberg of the Charging Systems 101.
