No power at the DLC. What fuses does this travel through? I already checked the cigarette ligher fuse but it is fine. Also car randomly needs jumped and batter is fine. Alternator 120 fuse was popped I replaced and started better for 1 day then back to having issues starting. Any help would be appriciated.

Check the fuse with a test light and test the connector as well.

If the 120 blew, you need to find out why. Replacing it does not fix it. It blew for a reason.

The alternator may be going bad

Don't have a test light, but do have a multimeter. I would imaging im looking for 12 vdc at the power pin of the dlc correct? Think ill pull the alternator and have it bench checked. If it's bad I already have it out for the core charge.

Fuse # 14 (10 A) underdash provides battery voltage to the DLC and is hot at all times.
