yeah i wasnt about to try that haha, the battery light comes on with the key being turned to "on" or "run"... so its not a fuse problem, the alt is getting power its just not giving any... my dad's good friend is a mechanic and i was talking to him yesterday and he thought it was the alt as well... the guy knows more about cars than i would ever know... my brother should be shipping me one today at some point... though i will check the connections and all when i get home from school tonight..
