[Tigers] Tiger Issue

[steve wick]

Check your ammeter. The same thing happened to me. The main power goes through the ammeter. A wire came loose on the back of the alternator and shorted. The ammeter acted like a fusible link and fried. All power was lost. I ended up rerouting the wires to the ammeter through a 30-amp circuit breaker.

Good Afternoon Tigers,

I had took my Tiger out yesterday for gas and an inspection sticker. Two miles from my house the car just died - dead as a doornail!  Brand new battery.  I had to have the car flat-bedded home (I waited 2.5 hours in 90+ degree heat for the truck to arrive).

It's definitely an electrical issue, but I have no idea where to look/start.
Any input would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Tym McDowell
