I HAD DEAD BATTERY A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. PUT NEW BATTERY IN. TODAY I WAS DRIVING DASH STARTED FLASHING LOW BATTERY CHARGE. I ALSO LOST POWER STEERING. I AM THINKIN ALTERNATOR OR SERPANTINE BELT. ANY INPUT WOULD BE APPRECIATED
EITHER THE ALTERNATOR, SERPENTINE BELT OR THE TENSIONER.
Power-steering is hydraulic, have a pump. It sounds like the alternator is dying and may be creating drag on the serpentine belt and this would wreak loss of PSteering since the PS pump would not be spinning as fast as it should.
You will customarily get some patent noise from the alternator if the bearing are going bad.
The other article that happens on models where on earth one serpentine belt drives everything is the "harmonic balancer" now simply called the crankshaft pulley will slip if the rubber between the inner and outter pulley disintegrates and the crank pulley slips and slides until it falls sour. This can be caused by a locked up alternator or A/C compressor or smog pump or wet pump. Usually the belt will snap or jump stale before the crank pulley fail due to a locked up pump or compressor but you never know which will happen first.
Good Luck!
