The alternator on my 407 is getting so hot you can’t touch it. You can smell it getting hot in the cabin . This happened just after having the new a/c compressor charged but I can’t see how that could be connected. Both units were brand new oem. The alternator is only 5 months. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. TIA Keith
