Test the alternator by disconnecting the battery with the engine running.
- A battery acts as a voltage stabilizer or filter to the pulsating DC produced by the alternator.
- Disconnecting a battery while the engine is running can destroy the sensitive electronic components connected to the electrical system.
- In the 1970s, removing a battery terminal was an accepted practice to test charging systems of that era. That is not the case today.
