The fuse for the alternator in your 2009 Chevy Malibu is situated along the big red wire connecting to your battery. This wire is crucial as it channels power from the alternator to the battery's positive terminal. You'll find the fuse close to the starter motor, around the firewall area. If the fuse blows, it indicates there may be a short in the alternator wiring. To ensure there are no grounding issues, it's advised to test for continuity. Additionally, a faulty voltage regulator could cause the fuse to blow if the alternator is producing too much voltage or current.

Certainly! Absolutely, it does work. I recently replaced mine. It can be found in the fuse box under the hood - look for an 80-amp fuse.
