I don't know if the shop you took it to was a dealership (it does not sound like it was) but I would carry the car to a dealer and get his opinion. I have worked on many cars I have never had a need to replace the cable between the alternator and junction block and I don't know how this cable is installed in your car but I can't see it costing him $400.00 to fix or $80.00 if you do it. If he is just replacing the one wire it should not cost that much and if he is planning on replacing a complete harness it would probably be even more. I would take it to the dealership if I could not fix it myself.How to change the cable from alternator to junction box?
