Default listen to this crap... sc is amazing

ok i have a 92 sc400. my alternator DIED on us19 i live about 10 miles from there. i drove all the way home with absolutely no power. no lights. no breaks cept the e break, no power stearing. i love rack/pinion stearing, i wouldnt of made it with out it. ne way i was on my way to chilis for dinner when all the lights just died. and the stearing got really really stiff. and after i breaked for the first time to turn off i couldnt push the breaks in anymore. imagine going 70 down a busy cityish road and everything failing at once.... it sucks. any way i drove the sc all the way home where it dinally completely died in my driveway. i have to use shiftlock override to get it into park

it usually happens when the power steering leaks atop of the alternator, and youu can find most of these common problems on the FAQ's of intellexual.net and the search button on top of the site.
sorry about alll the problems thanks goodness your alright

Good Luck homie
