ok well i got the altenator off my other neon.. and it was doing just fine till today and now im getting code 47 which is charging system voltage too low.. what could cause this... i was thinking that it could have somehting to do with the battery temperature thingy which i just have bolted into a hole up front.. cuz my battery is in the trunk,, so could that affect it or is the Altenator junk also...

oh and i searched for code 47 post but could not find any well there was like 247 results and i went through the first 3 pages and didnt find anything


anyone want to help me out

 

anyone...

could the battery temp thingy cause this??

 

well it depends wat year is the alternator off of and wat year u bolt it on to cause if its a 2nd gen the alternator is bigger then the first

 

it could josh just pull the sensor... it will throw a code 44 but it wont hurt anything will just charge battery at a slower rate then if the battery was warming the sensor... I would just pull it... it could also be a combonation of the sensor and the underdrive pulley...

the pulley is slowing the alternator and then the sensor is trying to send more voltage to the battery then the pulley will alow so your thorowing a code... is your battery staying charged??? if so dont worry about it...

 

ok well sorry for the hassle guys but i finnally got the time to check it out today when my car died on the side of the highway.. cuz i havent had any time but the wire the bolts on broke....
