I will check the radio shack today and look into the other mentioned options also, thanks

Any idea of where a guy can pick one of these up? Or is the only option to buy a new volrmeter and if yes to the new volt meter any suggestions guys on where to buy a new one? I have googled and checked cucvelectric to no avail. thanks for the assistance gents

I have heard about the volt meter resistor before and looked for it on the back where everyone mentions it is located. I have also removed my entire dash and cluster to do bulbs on two m1009's and not seen anything except the actual voltmeter and the little bracket that holds it in. Am I...

ok after cleaning everything up gen one and gen two lights no longer flash red or come on during driving but volt meter goes into red about fifteen seconds after start up. any thoughts?

Ok so went into Autozone this morning and they tested both alts for me, guy had no idea what an isolated ground alt was. But hooked it up, both passes using the large positive and negative stud, but when he hook it up to the isolated ground FAIL Is this normal? Is there some better way to test...

alts called Autozone they test alts outside the vehicle, so Im going to give that a shot see if it shows the alt as the issue alone or if I can narrow it to the truck. I hope this is simple and the alternator and not another issue within the truck as Im out of ideas on the truck.

got an email back from the alt seller on ebay, will update when I speak to them on the phone tomorrow hopefully

cucvnut, maybe. Im looking into that contacted the folks from ebay but brand new delco remy rebuilds. Is there anything else in these trucks im over loking that may regulate voltage? I just cant think of anything else

ok update. I put the optimas in and had same results. I also cleaned pretty much every ground I could find with a wire brush lots of dirt and stuff. Fired the truck up a few times, volt meter stays in green for fifteen seconds than all the way up into the red.

ok will give it a shot, it has new terminal as of a few months ago but the original gov cables. Thanks for the input

anyone got any ideas? Im throwing in the red tops today to see if that helps the situation and pulling the trigger on the relays at cucv electric.
