91 suby
So i have a 91 legacy ls wagon. I am having extreme difficulty finding
what i beleive is some sort of a short in my charging system. I have a
pretty decent understanding of alternator and battery operations. I
have pulled the alternator out of the car and had it tested at the
local parts stores and voltage was up to par and i also replaced the
battery so they are both in working order. I took a my voltage meter
and tested the voltage of the battery when car is off (12.0v) and when
car is running (12.0 v) with all accesories off. I cant seem to pull
charge off the alternator. Also my abs,charge,and brake idiots lights
are on during any operations of the car which now wont start without a
jump. And sometimes the abs unit continues to run after car is turned
off. ANd on top of all of that my check engine light is on after car
gets up to running temp and after i connected the diagnoses wires the
code reads 35 which is purge valve solenoid failure. So my main
question is without the continuity of the purge control solenoid valve
working will that cause my alternator to not be able to charge my
battery therefore not allowing me to drive without replacing this part.
I would greatly appreciate any advice or knowledge that anyone could
share with me... cheers
