2008 XC70 alternator failure?

Post by ricoj123 »

My 2008 XC70 has stopped charging the battery-is there a fuse, fusible link,or circuit breaker in the system that I have failed to locate?

More then likely the regulator in the alternator went. You can take the car to any autoparts stuff like autozone or advance auto parts. They should be able to test the alternator with it still in the car.

your car is still under warranty, don't mess with it and let the dealer fix it.
