Just curious, experiencing the same headlight dimming (and other losses of power) issues in my 2006 azera. Was wondering if the wire bypass worked... Is it simply connecting a 4 gauge wire from the positive contact on the alternator to the positive contact on the battery? Do I need to ground the wire? Thanks for the insight.

 

Regarding solution offered by GREGBR post #10, 08-15-2011, i.e. connecting a wire from the alternator directly to the positive battery post, is there not a risk of possible damage to the electrical system if you don't install a fuse on that wire? If so, what size should that fuse be? I note in the fuse box next to the battery, a 150 A fuse for the alternator.
