I had the same problem because I had 2 much juice going to the battery and I blew a fuse. Check the fuse on the positive battery terminal. If that fuse is blown, your alternator will not charge the battery properly therefore making it appear as though the alternator is bad when it really isn't.

you got any aftermarket stereo equipment? subs amps? anything that could be drawing too much current from the alternator?
