Thank god for you🙏 I just saved my self a trip to the dealership I had already swapped the battery and alternator so I thought maybe it’s the electric load detector(eld) but when you said there was a fuse for it I had to check before buying it so I swapped it and it fixed my problem!
Thank you so much for advice. I got my car on the road after 1 week, a new battery and 2 brand new alternators. So glad shop said they were full, I’m sure I would of been charged and arm and a leg for a $2 problem
This was awesome man.. I replaced my alternator and battery and still was having charging issue. I looked at the yellow black wire first like you suggested and noticed that wire was almost pulled out from the clip. So even though the clip was connected to the alternator the black and yellow wire wasn't making contact.. I just pressed the wire back in their. Connected the clip back to the alternator and everything was charging correctly. I was about to take the honda element to the shop because I couldn't figure out what it was. Thanks for the help
Thank you I fiex my 2000 civic with this info. Literally did everything else besides checked the fuse. And it was the fuse the whole time. Appreciate you keep going!
Wait music will make your alternator because I just bought a 2006 and a new alternator and a new battery and it's still doing the same thing I'm going to change the fuse tomorrow fuse 21 7.5 and 18 .15
Really informative video very good job sir ... i am having the same issue right now with a 1995 honda accord i changed the alternator checked the fuse box all the fuses and still cant figure out why it isnt charging
It might be the same solution for a honda accord 2008 v6 ? I already replaced the alternator 2 times and now there’s something wrong, battery it’s almost new don’t even have a year or almost a year and the alternator as well. I started the car with no problem and then turned it off, when i tried to started again wont start. I jumped and the car started with no problem when i got gome the car was on and I unplugged the black pole from the battery and the car continued on then i put it back and turned the car off and tried to start and won’t start at all. Before this happened i was able to see a battery sign on the dashboard going on and off during all this months after the second alternator was replaced and the car was working normally with no problem till today. I think there’s something draining my battery or the alternator. Need help
Eld its a brown box on the fuse box where those batterie wire joint..look for honda eld ( electric load detector) but first check the fuse inside the kick panel and trace back to the connector by lower intake
Addytionally, I would like to ask for your help. I have checked a voltage between battery (+) and a yellow-green cabel (altern) with an admission turned on. There is 0.05V. Without addmission is 11.96V (but battery is weaker at the moment and have 12V). Unfortunately I didn't see any kick fuse for alternator (I've got accord 2.0 2003) So, what I understood is I need to check the cables and connectors between main fuse's box and the alternator, yes?
Check connector side yellow black on alternator if you get voltage there with key on everything its good change alternator even though the battery its weak as long you start the car with a jump and this keeps on check the voltage out put on alternator should be 13.6v to 14v if this doesn't die you need a new battery..a good alternator with the car running its should put out a 13v to 14v ...if you dont get 12v anything 5v up in this black and yellow wire need to trace back to the connector if still nothing go inside and check the fuse for the alternator..that wire should have the same voltage as the battery..hope this help
Same thing just check the wire that come from the eld if its has 12v i it doesnt you can apply 12 from the battery and see if it charge if doesnt your alternator its not good
Hi you doing i have been looking for a video that shows what you did on the 03 Honda accord and i do believe i have the same problem my question would be do think that if run a direct cable from my 🔋 it would work just find
I might but to by pass it you would need to put one cable with ignition on if you do it from the battery your alternator would short out and would drain ur battery over night so..cut the wire and look for a fuse that goes on when u put ur ignition on and should work
My o7 Honda Accord will go several days & then will not start. Want turn over, dose not make a sound. Like the alternator is not recharging the battery. But will except a boost m, start right up and goes a week or so & then the same thing. What do you suggest?
I would make a load test on the battery and monitor the voltage on the alternator for 40 to a 1hour checking if the voltage drop if everything goes well check if anything stays on like phone chargers or radio etc. Good luck
So, if you get 12 volts to the yellow/black wire where it attaches to the alternator (from the negative battery terminal ) with the ignition switch on, you can assume that the fuse and connector are good right?
The yellow and black wire comes from fuse 18 inside the fuse box and it joint with another wire to the electric load detector then runs to the connector on the alternator ..and yes if you have 12v at ignition on the black and yellow wire u have verified 3 things ...the fuse 18 at the kick panel its good..2 u dont havea short 3 u have a bad alternator
Simple system 12v at ignition from fuse 18 to the outside then joint with electric load detector at the outside fuse box from there runs to the alternator plug black and yellow
@@SamsAutomotiveS Ok, I am totally blind ... it was 2 NOT 12 volts to the black/yellow wire with ignition on and 0 with ignition off?? Fuse 18 is indeed good. I checked multiple times ... I kind of thought it would be either 0 or 12 volts ... nothing in between. Thoughts? AND thank you for your quick reply!!!!!!!!!
So if you dont have 12v at the yellow/blackyou need to trace it back there is a conector down the intake check there if not make a new wire with 12v on the ignition and the alternator should start working..
I have a regular voltmeter so im assuming id set it black in common red in v/ohm lead spot far right, ? setting for 12v or 20 since that's the closest in the range given. Run the common or black lead to battery negative aka ground red to black and yellow at alternator plug, check reading, start car, check reading correct? 12g being the magic number we want to see in both cases. Also how are you getting a reading off that blk yellow wire- did you poke a hole into it or did you get the lead end through the rubber seal to the pin
Could a guy not just cut the black yellow from the main harness and toss a relay in there to provide ignition switched power? I have this issue on a friend's car.. fuse was blown.. for a reason.. I get ground on the black yellow but can energize the alt if I put direct power to the black yellow on the alt side of things.. get 14+ volts
Hi happy day. I am having same problem 05 Honda Accord 2.4 liter. How can the short in the wire be fix? Swap two new alternator same problem. Also airbag light and mass airflow volume air flow a circuit low error code PO102 code on obd reader. Please help been three days now.
You can supply 12 volts to it but i think your ELD its bad look it thats whats its call it electric load detector eld..if you supply 12 to that wire your alternator will be on the whole time..
This one is gonna really messed you guys up I have an 02 acura rsx type S New engine harness ktuned New charge harness ktuned and oem New engine gnds and extras Alternator charging but light wont come off So cel no eld codes no dtcs I don’t know second alt and this one is charging 13.6 running Im stumped car is a motorsport shop as we speak

Thank you very simply explained all I had to do was go to the fuse box and problem solved..
Thank you I fiex my 2000 civic with this info. Literally did everything else besides checked the fuse. And it was the fuse the whole time. Appreciate you keep going!
Thank you so much for your video .very helpful.
Thanks I’ll try this tomorrow man hopefully i can find the issue they had custom speakers in there.
Wait music will make your alternator because I just bought a 2006 and a new alternator and a new battery and it's still doing the same thing I'm going to change the fuse tomorrow fuse 21 7.5 and 18 .15
Perfect video
thank you
Thanks it help me to fix my car
Glad i can help you ..and im glad you understood the video cuz people got more question and got confused
Thank you!
Thank you.
Nice job
Thank you señor!
Oye amigo no le entendí muy bien mi inglés es algo malo...Loque pasa esque mi batería es buena pero elaternador no me carga ..como le hisiste saludos
Thank you
Did you have to take out the manifold to fix the loom wire?
Really informative video very good job sir ... i am having the same issue right now with a 1995 honda accord i changed the alternator checked the fuse box all the fuses and still cant figure out why it isnt charging
Would this apply to the 98 to 2002 Honda accord. I'm having an issue with no battery light on dashboard wen key in on posting.
Thank u.. now my 2005 tsx battery light came on then went out. I started it car it on again. I can drive it still yes.. ? To work..

i got this issue with an accord thats 10 years older and i cant figure out what the issue is. i wish it was as simple as the newer accord lol
Hi Sam, very usefull advices. Thank you.
I would like to ask you what is a low detector and where is?
Eld its a brown box on the fuse box where those batterie wire joint..look for honda eld ( electric load detector) but first check the fuse inside the kick panel and trace back to the connector by lower intake
Fuse box when detects load like lights ac radio this turn the alternator on
Addytionally, I would like to ask for your help. I have checked a voltage between battery (+) and a yellow-green cabel (altern) with an admission turned on. There is 0.05V. Without addmission is 11.96V (but battery is weaker at the moment and have 12V).

I got a 98 accord that simple won't charge my battery, when it's started I get about 12v than it just quickly goes down to like 9 or 8 volts
Same thing just check the wire that come from the eld if its has 12v i it doesnt you can apply 12 from the battery and see if it charge if doesnt your alternator its not good
I have a 2008 Toyota Corolla and battery light keep coming on I replace the alt intake bought a new battery

Put the volt meter in dc-ac 12v black on ground red on the plug
On thesting wire
My car doing the same this rn. 2007 accord 2.4
You find the solution?
Solution?
Could a guy not just cut the black yellow from the main harness and toss a relay in there to provide ignition switched power? I have this issue on a friend's car.. fuse was blown.. for a reason.. I get ground on the black yellow but can energize the alt if I put direct power to the black yellow on the alt side of things.. get 14+ volts
You can do that too.but im not sure if you will get a check engine for the eld relay..
I think I have the same problem. I'm confused if it's the regulator or the wires. can I replace the wires?
The wire its not making connection.. you will make sure you have 12v if you don't the fuse its blown if you have 12v your alternator its not good
Are those same connectors existent on a 2002 Civic Si hatchback?
I think it might just different color
@@SamsAutomotiveS does the plug need to be connected at the alternator for your test to work?
Look for honda ELD
Eld mean electric load detector this control honda alternator
@@SamsAutomotiveS I know where the ELD is, but would it act intermittent if the ELD is infact going bad?
1996 honda civic I changed battery have plenty gas car dies but will sometimes take jump but gets Two blocks away and dies again
Will advanced auto check this?
No sir
I have a 2007 honda accord coupe I put in new battery and new alternator and it still won't charge and shows battery light

My alternator doesn't wanna charge plus it's a new alternator n a new battery on it too n its draining my battery down
yo! you ever figure this out? Mine started doing this exact thing.
This one is gonna really messed you guys up
I have an 02 acura rsx type S
New engine harness ktuned
New charge harness ktuned and oem
New engine gnds and extras
Alternator charging but light wont come off
So cel no eld codes no dtcs
I don’t know second alt and this one is charging 13.6 running
Im stumped car is a motorsport shop as we speak
U figured it out?
Heyy can you help me
Please let’s link up in dm for more help about more setting I really need for my 2004 lx v4 thanks for replay me by God seek
Follow the steps
It's too dark for you to be explaining and pointing out what's wrong with the alternator. I didn't see what you looking at...
