I have a 95 Dodge Neon 5spd 4cyl SOHC, that will not charge the battery, I had the Alternator tested and its still good. Any suggestions on how to fix it would be much appreciated.

Using a volt meter what is the voltage at the battery terminals with the engine running? Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

This could be a problem with the PCM that is the acting voltage regulator. The question is what to do on a 1995 Neon IMO. Are you sure this alternator tested OK? If so I think I'd aggressively be checking the battery itself, all connections known good. Keep battery charged with a charger. Have a real voltmeter to show you this thing is or isn't putting out proper operating voltage at least while in the vehicle and go from there. Volts are not the same as the amps but would be telling if anything was happening with engine running, T

Hi there! I just replaced the clutch on my 95 (same model as yours) and when I was done I fired it up and I ran into the same problem, I got my alternator tested and a new battery, checked all connections and grounds, and my battery still won't charge or hold the charge. I'm not sure what the problem is but maybe it's a broken wire between the battery and the alternator and its shorting out or i was thinking there's no regulator on the alternator it self it's and external one somewhere near the computer unit and I don't know if that would make this problem if it was faulty but that's the only thing I haven't tested. If u guys got any suggestions toss it at me! Thanks -Bert

I would suggest starting your own thread so you can get some help.......We don't piggyback 2 different posters problems on the same thread...
