[QUOTE="CobraSam, post: 16687422, member: 198102"] I don’t mean to insult your intelligence so excuse me. The only way I see that happening is if you accidentally hooked the cables up backwards. Maybe check and see if the new battery has the terminals in the same location. Usually the fusible link will run up before the alternator, but not always. I’ve done this exact thing before and it burnt up my alternator. [/QUOTE]
