I don't see why the SRS would do any damage the alternator. Denso makes
good alternator. Mine is still going at 270k miles on a second set of brushes.
Get your old alternator back and take to a place that run free tests.

Greetings,

Thanks for everyone's help on my past few topics.  Your advice is
AWESOME!

New problem...:(

Last week, I had my civic steam cleaned.  They guy pulled the seats out
and cleaned the entire car.  Its looks MINT now.  HOWEVER, when he put
the car seats back in my SRS light came on.  After checking on Google,
it seemed like a simple fix.  $80 bucks to reset the SRS system.  So I
took it to Dow Honda here in Ottawa and the mechanic phoned me back and
said that MY ALTERNATOR was not working correctly and needs to be
replaced.  He hooked up his computer diagnostic thingy to my car and
noticed that the alternator (electrical) was not working correctly.
Anyhow, I told him to fix it.  ugg. $600 bucks later everything is cool
now (SRS light is off), but I am worried that I got screwed.  A couple
of points:

1) I drove the car FOR A WEEK, with the SRS light on and NOT ONCE did
the Alternator light go on.   Under what circumstances could the above
SRS thing happen and no alternator light goes on?
2) Wouldn't the car has massively lost power with a faulty alternator
(lights flickering, electrical systems getting weird)

I know it's after the fact, but I am worried that I got took by the
Dealer.  At least I can go there and raise some hell (maybe get some
credit towards future repairs)

Help?
