S14 dies when jumper is taken off battery??? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Ok so my 95 has a new alternator, battery is good, fuses look good but won’t stay on. I hooked up a jumper to it and it starts like a champ and stays running until the moment I take the jumper off. Once it’s off, it’s dog shit!... any others had the same issue? What did you do to fix it?.... also the cluster lights don’t work, every other light works fine.

Pretty sure your alternator fuse is blown

I triple checked AND installed new fuses. Did the same thing.

Either a wiring issue or your new alternator is faulty
