I recently bought an '06 Base model. The previous owner was having charging problems so he took it a mechanic. The mechanic told him that the computer wasn't putting out juice on the circuit that energizes the alternator. The mechanic said the options were to replace the computer or splice in a wire between the alternator and fuse box to energize the alternator. Of course he took the cheaper option. The mechanic ran a wire from a large yellow wire in the interior fuse box and connected it to the red wire on the alternator. He just used scotchloks to connect it. I plan to at least redo the connections and get rid of the scotchloks, but is there a better solution that doesn't involve buying a new computer?
