[QUOTE="metalheadjoe, post: 8743682, member: 581422"] Sounds like a problem with your alternator. Electronics can't cause their supply voltage to increase; I don't know how some people come up with such ridiculous info, yet they spout it confidently. Dunning-Kruger Effect at its finest. Pull your alternator and bring it to an auto parts store to have it tested. It's usually free to have them test it. So much stupid "advice" in this thread. You don't need a relay for two amps' remote turn-on. A distribution block is not a relay, but don't worry about that because you don't need a relay. Someone did some tests and a relay's coil pulls as much as seven amps' remote current (if i remember correctly). Your ac compressor is not an "electrical component". However, Ford cuts out the ac when you floor it to give you more power, so that is likely unrelated and completely normal. [/QUOTE]
