You need to address the root cause of the problem, either your belt is worn/insufficiently-tightened, the alternator is bad (4 alternators in 4 years suggests you're getting bad remans), or something is contaminating the belt/pulleys and causing the slippage.
Of the 4 alternators that crapped out, 3 of them had the bearing go bad and one screwed up internally and started pumping out more than 17 volts and then drained the battery after I shut the car off. But of course, a week after the one that blew up was replaced there was a news report of a major recall of reman. alternators from my "store" and I just paid $180 to have my piece of crap replaced. I could have pushed the issue but my car was running and I just let it go,....
ALL the alternators had been over tightened. Mechanics don't want customers coming back with squealing belts so they just crank em tight. Then when the customer comes back half a year later with a squealing alternator bearing that's fine because it's got a two year warranty and I only have to pay for the labor,... only $180. All of these four alternators were replaced within that original two year period,... wasn't I lucky!!! And then by the fourth re install, the axle seal was gushing gear oil,... another $200, but I'm sure pulling the axle four times had nothing to do with it. It's a 13 year old car those kinds of things are bound to happen and we've all gotta keep the economy going don't we.
So,..now that I took over control,.. I just keep the belt on the looser side and play with my electrical loads when necessary,...
But I am still convinced that that control wire from the ECU is in fact magic,.. So I'm gonna go ahead and play with it !!!!
However,... due to the fact that I have a tendency to create problems that aren't really there and then cloud up the forum with my nonsense,... I shan't be posting any results.
(P.S. If the circuit in question is so delicate with such huge detrimental ramifications,... then there is no way my car can survive an accidental full field or no field blast correct ??. So when that magic wire is broken or corroded and your brand new alternator isn't putting out any power then that must have destroyed your ECU right ?? And when you disconnect your ground terminal from your battery with the car running then reconnect it, the shock to the system will obviously destroy your ECU,... and when you hook up a 200,000 watt sound system to your P5 requiring your alternator to go from no field to full field 30 times a second, then you obviously kill Everything,... the alternator the battery and the ECU Right ??? (there was a hint of sarcasm in that entire paragraph,... so you'll need to ignore it))
P.S.S,... I was talking to an acquaintance of mine who told me how his Brother-In-Law was hired to be the manager of the automotive department at one of those "stores". Out of 13 people working in that department, he was the ONLY licensed mechanic.
So when I get a call at the end of their work day saying that both my rear calipers are seized and my quote for a brake job has expanded from $200 to $750, the pro's must be right ??,... I thought they had a system called Mitchel that would tell them about removing a little bolt then turn the Allen screw ?,... I guess these unlicensed kids don't know how to work a computer or read ???,.. Oh well I've got $500 to spare,.. I like too how I'm charged for two cans of brake cleaner at full price when they installed new pads, rotors and calipers,.. I guess they used it to clean their hands,...
