  The alternator can be tested while the engine is not running and also while the engine is running.
  
  *A weak battery can burn out an alternator before it's time since it would be constantly working hard trying to keep power in the battery.
  
  * Always check that you have sound corrosion free connections at the alternator before performing the electrical test.
  
  * ALWAYS be very cautious when you are working on the engine while the car is running. Double check that there are no rags or tools lying around within the engine compartment and remove any necklaces, bracelet's, ties or loose clothing that may get caught up in a moving part.
