Re: Need electrical diagnostic, stranded 200 82

This is what I would do to get home. Go buy or borrow a new or fully charged battery. Swap it into the stranded car. I would check for a short to ground with an ohm meter before I did this (Disconnect the battery to check), if you are SURE the harness is shot and grounding you can just cut off the alt wire where it attaches to ( I think) the starter solenoid. Or do as some one else recommnded, disconnect wire and run another over to Battery, this assumes your alt. is working.

This may not be your harness, check for proper charging voltage on the battery, your alt. brushes could be worn out (or worse).

You know how to remove and check 'em?
