    Hey all. I am new to the forum. Trying to help my dad. We put in alternator today. Replaced the battery. I think maybe the alternator fuse may be draining the battery. I cannot get the fuse out to replace it. Help please. It is a 1998 Tacoma.

    For more information on troubleshooting parasitic (key-off) loads draining your battery, please see Section 10 in the Car and Deep Cycle Battery FAQ on www.batteryfaq.org.

    your alternator fuse is a circuit item, not a load. It CAN'T drain your battery. Only items that can cause a load will do this.
