My 1999 Ford Explorer XL 6 cylinder is having an electrical problem that appears to be killing my alternator. About a year ago, I had to replace a 175-amp fuse that is inline with my battery and alternator. Everything has been fine until recently, when I got in my truck one night and noticed my dash lights going dim and my battery indicator was lit.
I own a 1995 Nissan Frontier and my lights are very dim, my whippers are moving extra slow, and prior to all this I was experiencing squealing from I think my alternator belt, then all of a sudden, it stopped. This is when I started experiencing these problems.
We have a 1997 Chevrolet Lumina. About a week ago, when starting the vehicle, it stalled, and then took a couple tries for it to start again. The clock on the radio reset itself to 12:00. After that, it did not happen again for a couple days. Electric is not getting to anything else. Also, to note, the radio itself only half the buttons were lighting up when the car was in working order. Pease give any advice you may have.

My 1996 Toyota Corolla was brought to the future shop to install a remote car starter and then everything was fine. Now 2 days after in the morning, the car would not start.

My Ford Fairmont has intermittent symptoms – Battery indicator light on, charge indicator going off end of scale, engine power decreases as if dropping down a gear.
