The other day as i was changing the oil filter i shorted between the alternator and the block and got a small arc.Now i noticed the volt meter at about 8 volts.I removed the alternator and had it checked and it checked good.I noticed at the end of the wiring harness where it connects to the 2 small screws on the alternator there is a small rectangular plastic box.Its sealed and you cannot get it apart but i suspect my problems in there. Any idea's?

 

Look for a blown fuse in the PDC. It is a 120 amp cartridge and about $7

 

Thanks for the fast response.Just what is a PDC and where is it?

 

Power Distribution Center.
Black box under the hood near driver side battery.

Thanks Fueling around,you were right on the mark.The fuse was blown.I replaced it and now I'm good to go.Thanks again.
