All dash lights on
The car was stolen the other day. Now the
alternator is bad. Why?

question = My wife`s car was stolen the other day. My fault. Spare key
was in my truck. Car was fine before hand. Now all dash lights come on
and battery is no good. I assume alternator. I tried to get alt. off to
no avail. How does it come off?
Thank you.

There is a pic of bolt locations. Click link for
'Replace alternator for 1997 chevy...'.
It is Cavalier, but the same as yours. The alt. comes up and out. With all dash lights
on, i  think you  may have more then a bad alternator (if it is bad). If car wont start,
may just be  a shorted out battery internally. That would give many different
electrical problems. If all  lights on and car is running, then you may have other
electrical problems.
