I have a JLG 450A with a Ford Industrial Engine. When it's running, the battery light on the console is on and when running it from the basket, there is a warning light and an alarm on. I think the light is known as the "engine distress" light (not actually sure about that) I got that info on line and it says that it could be a problem in any number of the on board systems. I put a tester on the battery and it shows that the alternator isn't charging. Could this be the reason that that light and alarm are on? Do you know what alternator it takes? I looked it up on line and found one from a JLG dealer, but it didnt give any identifying numbers - and they wanted $750.00 for it. I gotta believe that I dont need to spend that kind of money for an alternator.
Thanks for your help
