New Alternator...Same Problem

Well I got my Alterstart/ Load Boss 200 amp alternator in today and I installed it....I proceeded to wash my car after it was installed and working fine.

When I started the car up after I installed it, it made a loud squeeking noise and the voltmeter would climb up higher and higher until it was to full voltage and the squeeking stopped.

I thought this was due to water getting on my alternator but now i am confused....I have installed this shield that you will see in the next two pictures.






Now when I started looking around I noticed a lot of water sitting on my abs unit...in the picture below.



Then this is the car...sorry for whoring



Also if anyone can just please help me out a little bit here...I am so lost on what it could be now.

Are you sure it is not another pulley making the noise?

Is your belt too tight?

Did you get water on the pulley making the belt squeel?

Car looks good.

1. I am pretty sure it is the alternator pulley just because it is also having charging issues....I am going to try and get a video of it so you guys can see but it happens quick and i normally dont have a camera on me.

2. I did just replace the belt but it also did it with the old one.

3. I am really not to sure if it was on the pulley or not...I didnt take notice to that since I was in a scramble to get my hood popped.

Also when my car is shifting from 1 to 2nd at wot sometimes, it squels to but I think that is just the belt even though it did that with my old and new one....

Ill see if I can try and figure something out but guys dont be shy to throw out some more ideas.

Well guys I think it is my belt slipping from being wet....here is a few pictures and a video of what it does.... In the begining of the video you will hear a chirp when i start the car... you will barely hear it over the door open ding. Then when you hear the door open ding again is when it makes the loud squeek.
