S130

[Rentall]

Weird problem just came up with one of my S130's. Unit starts fine, engage drive and it moves about 3 feet then the battery light comes on and it stops driving and shuts off. You can drive like this for as long as you want, but only 3 feet at a time. Any ideas?

No service codes?

No service codes, lights were flashing all over the place and nothing was working as it should. Checked the battery voltage since the light was on and found the alternator overcharging (17.5V) Pulled the alternator belt from the engine to remove the alternator from the issue and everything worked fine. New alternator will be here tomorrow.

Good job and a easy fix would take the old one to a rebiulder for a back up
