I got my alternator from this place. No issues this far. My voltage has yet to drop below 14.2So got off the phone with Stephanie from AutoTech and she said the "alternator tested fine" But It was "overheated from not being grounded"... I told her it 100% was grounded. You can even see in my picture posted here the two 2/0 grounds going to the ear of the alternator. She said but it's powder coated so that does not work. I told her the powder coating is grounded off the ears before the alternators are even sent out. The whole point in me sending it back was Sam was going to see what he could do about getting it to charge lower. She said you need to raise your idle. Which I have explained a few times isn't possible as it's drive by wire and no tunability available for them. She said she would have Sam call me back.
