Did replacing the regulators in the Alternators fix your problem?
I am seeing a slight variation in voltage, but on my digital volt meter, it moves so fast that it is really hard to read. Mostly I just see 29.75v.
Well, I took the alternator to the shop, and they tested everything, and were reluctant to put a new regulator in, as they had just replaced it. They wanted me to conduct more testing on it.
The light only starts flickering once the engine has warmed up/driven for 10 minutes or so. Then it...
Thanks everyone for your quick responses. My stupid mistake. CPF240 is absolutely correct, I was confusing the brown wire with what must be the tach wire. I went back and looked with better light, and there is indeed a red and brown wire going into the white plastic plug, and they both check...
Hi All,
I just had both alternators rebuilt, and after less than an hour of driving, the Gen. 2 light started flickering briefly. I have checked the voltages at the batteries with the engine running - 14.9 on the front battery, 14.7 on the back battery, 29.6 across both batteries. I also...
Thanks Warthhog for the quick reply. I am hoping that the new relay will fix most of the starter issues, I am just worried that it might have been something else than the relay failing that caused the starter to run, since the solenoid was not engaged.
