im having a problem with my tracker itdos not not hold a charge very long i have changed the alt and battery but it still dies this is what it dos first the tac go,s to zero and then the dash lights go dim and head lights go dim and then the motor dies out when you try to strart it thays no power to cranck it over but if i wait for 1 hour it starts and dos all this again can any body help me

this is my first 92 geo tracker

sounds like either you have a heavy current draw or your battery isn't a charge - check all the wiring in the plug on the back of the alternator and to the battery - there is a 60 amp fuse in the main fuse box under the hood and a smaller fuse (#8) under the dash. if you can keep it running for a minute put a voltmeter on the battery - should be 13-14 volts when running. to check for current draw when vehicle is off disconnect negative battery terminal and wire up a 12 volt bulb between the battery terminal and the negative cable - if the bulb lights up for more than 15 seconds check for a draw in the system somewhere - pulling fuses on at a time is a good way to isolate the circuit

good luck

thanks i will try that    

just wondering if you found what was wrong with the truck?

cheers ; derek

yes i found the problem. it was three wires going into the fuse box under the hood.  they were damaged.  so i made new connections and so far so good.

thanks for the help
