i got to 15.3 volts on my batt

[AznRevlAzn 10+ year member]

ok so i am parked at my University Parking area and i open the trunk to check on my oxygen sensor (i got a new one) and i took a look at my Knukonceptz Digital Fuse Distro Block and it read 15.3 volts. Usually it read like 14.6 but holy ****, 15.3!!!! It was prolly from teh long drive from my commute to the University but i don't know maybe my alternator spiked?

1. Should i be worried about my electrical system?

2. Was this the probable cause of frying my TS960-4?

3. How do i cap it to stay at say 14.5dcv or at a nominal 12.5?

oxygen sensor for what?

air intake, my old one was killed somehow and the **** check engine light was on for months till i found out what the problem was. No more orange icon of check engine of doom!

How sure are you on the accuracy of the block?

 

[AznRevlAzn 10+ year member]

thats the thing, i am pretty sure it's pretty **** accurate with it being from knukonceptz and all. I've had it for months without a problem, idles at 14.8dcv, and when the car is off right when the ignition is turned of it will be at 13.4, then when the ignition has say not been turned on for like a week, it will drop to 12.2-4. I have no idea where this spiked 15.3 volts came from though.

Take a good dmm and put that on where the fuse block is.

I have a feeling its off.

Next time you make that drive leave the engine on and see where its at, then turn it off and look again.
