I think pajero fm has no ecu and uses 3sm battery. 12mn umalis ako SPC, dumating ako bahay sa apalit 1:30am+

Fully Charged the battery overnight and the following day, from apalit to manila, dinala ko oto to have the alternator replaced bnew. Brought a spare battery as well just in case ma trapik sa edsa at malow batt battery and mamatay ECU/engine.

Wow! Lakas sir! haha! anyway I had my pajero checked in rey's autoelectrical here in marikina, although mga 4.30pm na ako nandun, I relayed my problem and they just tested with their voltmeter...Without ac and all and engine at idle i was at 13v..with ac on i was at 12v. They just said the alternator needs to be replaced for a whopping 6.8k (rewinded) but they will not be able to replace it during that time kasi closing na. Though I'm not convinced sa ganun kabilis na checking biglang palit agad. Minadali lang ata kasi gusto na magsara...
