My 2006 Highlander v6 alternator went bad. It showed low voltage and was making quite a bit of noise. It finally went out while driving and I had a battery sign come on. So I replaced it with a reman unit, but the voltage was still around 12.6v… so i returned it and bought a new Denso alternator. Finally replaced it today and now the voltage is still around 12.6v!!! There is no way I could have received two bad units (highly unlikely). I tested it with both a digital voltmeter and a battery load tester.
The car battery was recharged and the car starts fine and i can run it with lights on but the battery still shows 12.6v!
Is there a fuse between the alternator and battery?
Thanks!
