Hey guys ive searched the threads. I had the alternator not charging battery warning and the cat warning light go off. I read that my power steering pump that is leaking caused the alternator to stop working. Does this means it needs to be replaced or can I get it repaired by any chance?? also now my car wont idle. Is that just because the alternator isnt working?? by battery is a bit low on charge as well. Thanks guys. sorry if this is a thread i did do a search
Oh ok thanks. Got any idea whats going on with my car then. There is a power steering fluid leak, the battery isnt getting charged ( im pretty sure thats what the error code was), and now my car wont idle (the revs just die and it stalls). Please any help would be appreciated. ;)
so thats what is causing my car to stall. Sorry if thats very elemental but thanks anyways peter and matt. Ill get that either fixed or replaced. Thank you

you could also do the fuel pump ecu check - bridge fp and b+ terminals in the diagnostic connector and see if it runs. if it does, fuel pump ecu needs replacing.
not likely from your description, but possible if it runs then dies.
