the 100amp is connected to the alternator
so you gotta replace it once you done that before you start the car get a multi meter and get battery voltages start the car and get voltages if voltage is 14V or below while car is running alternator is stuffed 14.5V is a very good condition alternator 14.3V is about average 14.1V is getting pretty stuffed there and make sure you have no system load while this going eg: no big sound system, headlights etc and to get accurate alternator reading you should get the postive from the alternator directly then get the negative from the battery

generally there is a instruction book with them just to get volts or to use a cheap one is very easy and is a very handy tool
