This alternator is designed with the ELD charging system. This system allows for better fuel economy and adjusts idle speeds during periods of heavy electrical demand. In some cases the C terminal will turn the alternator off through the computer. If you are not sure if the unit is bad or the computer may be at fault, cut the "C" wire and the alternator should start to charge if it is good. Of course when cutting the wire leave enough wire so it can be reconnected.
