Alteranator plays the 2nd most important part of the car, first is battery, no battery no move It's a motor that generate electric current to your battery.
You can check if you can start your car properly, or you can feel if your car is weak during moving, etc...

DIY check also can

Learnt from a friend

Use a volt meter to check if your alternator is Ok.

Start the engine ,check the terminals on the battery.

Normal should be 14Volt.

if less than that means siao liao.
