1990 mitsubishi eclipse turbo 193,000, the car won't charge I have 3 alt. That test good on the, bench 2 won't work in the car, replaced battery, all connections cleaned and tight replaced all fuses, relays, light circuit functioning properly, resistances on wires appear to be ok, third alt worked for 300 miles after I had these problems but went back to same condition, any clue, could a bad ecu affect this? These cars are known for caps leaking in the ecu's. Thanx in advance

If you are loosing alternators. Then I come to conclude. You have high power STEREO SYSTEM that is blowing your altenators.
You have a broken altenator harness.
You have a bad electrical ground in your car someplace.

Dose your car have air conditioning. Power steering.
If so. Check the air conditionig and power steering units.

If not. GET A NEW BATTERY
