1993 Lexus SC400
well car wouldnt start the other night and all i heard was a clicking sound from the starter. and i thought oh man this is bad cause its every lexus v8 owners worst nightmare. but the power seem a little weak so i used a jumper pack and tryed to jump start the car but the engine wont turn over.then i used jumper cables and jumped my car with my friends car and it started but after i took off the cables my car dieds out.so i changed the altenator know that my battery is bad already. after changing it i jump started the car then i took off the cables it died out again. i put my friends battery in my car it started fine and it drove fine. but i still wanted to test the altenator so why the car was running i disconnected the negitive from the battery and the car jus died. i checked the fuses. in the engine compartment a fuse thats 30a "AM2" it looks burnt on the outside and the copper inside looks burnt. i dont know what this fuses does but can it be the problem or is it something else.
Sorry for the long post. Thanks!

please any help is greatly appreciated

 

Bad alternator fuse. They do not just "pull out" so search for proper technique and removal instructions.

PS- those don't generally blow just for fun. Might have other issues abound.

 

its not the alternator fuse i checked out and its still good

 

change the bad fuse anyway...these cars are odd like that

 

will do that today. thanks for the help guys

 

changed the alternator fuse still same problem.

 

were forewarned.

 

maybe your replacement alternator is no good. car should stay running most of the time.

 

there should be a power wire going from the battery to the Alternator, check it for breakage and cracks.

 

its a brand new alternator.. ima check the ground right now thanks
