Default Having alternator problems Please help

My es 300 was running fine and then all of a sudden the battery was dead.. so i took it in and had it checked it past so then i had the alternator checked it passed as well but my battery kept going dead. so i took it to my mechanic he found out it isn't charging under load. So i bought a new one and it did the same thing and so did 2 more alternators. my mechanic is at a loss. does anyone have any clue to what is going on. Thanks in advance Tony. sorry it's a 1996 es 300.

That's your problem. Get the Denso 210-0163.
