I don't see many actual "alternator" problems on LH series cars. They're pretty robust. Most times it's due to too heavy of a resistance somewhere, and the alternator is trying to pull an excessive load, killing it. First thing to always check in cases like this are clean battery terminals and no corrosion on fuse/relay boxes.
Alternator voltage is controlled via the ECU.

To me it seems like there is a short in the electrical system, but I was wondering if this is a common problem? ------------------------ Yahoo!
