Wow. I turned on my HVAC system one click on the lowest setting and my voltage jumped up to around 13.5 for a majority of the time. Before it would be at 11.6-11.8 if I'm driving under 45mph but once I go past 45mph for some reason it goes up.Is the voltage any better if you have the headlights on? Like Martin said you might be experiencing what Keep Hope Alive was.
Thanks man! Def going with this mechman alternator! Appreciate it!For your setup? yessir!
Idk I would have to ask themWill that new ALT be coming with an internal or external regulator?
I know!!! Any way around it?PCM controlled alts suck
This is my thought. Even if you go with a HO alternator (which is a good idea) an outboard regulator is a good move.before you get that ALT try an external voltage regulator. Your Car's PCM may be controlling the voltage and keeping it maxed out at 12v. *****(When you bypass the internal or take it out all together the battery light will come on. this is OK.)*****
I wouldn't mind getting one, any links to a good one?This is my thought. Even if you go with a HO alternator (which is a good idea) an outboard regulator is a good move.
