Lose wire or alternator on the way out?

[vex]

Update: Turns out the alternator was bad. Mechanic actually was able to get the alternator on warranty from the place of purchase so out of pocket expense is nill.

I still need to order the parts for the FD alternator and rebuild it. Should prove fun.

As a side note, what is the possibility of having two alternators going bad in two different cars within the same week (ie not even 24 hours apart). Turns out the alternator on the Toyota went out as well. Talk about super bad timing.

I've had 2 die on my 7 in the same week.
