Part: Alternator
Operation: What if the alternator gets wet?

It may happen that you are driving along a road in torrential rain and perhaps get into some very deep puddles, and notice that the battery warning light on the control panel comes on for a few seconds and perhaps at the same time hear a whistle or in any case a noise from the service belt. Probably in these conditions the water got to wet the V-belt so the latter started to slip making this noise and preventing the battery from being recharged for a few seconds. The problem is easy to solve in the sense that it will disappear as soon as the water dries up.
