MLA module issue

No way in hell I would run that high of a voltage on 12 volt batteries daily.

This is what I got from MLA

What alt do you have brand HO or stock?
Module should have no affect on your AC which is on a totally different circuit. So no answer for that. If your seeing 15.8v its gettin a low charge signal from your car/batteries. 15,8 @ cold start is ok it should back down to 15,4 or so when hot. 15,8 for comp would be fine, 4+ battery banks need the extra volts and can dissipate it .

MLA

I have 2 batteries up front stock and one 2400 in the real. I need to see if it drops off to 15.4. I know when I first checked it was about 10min after I turned the truck on. So it might of dropped off to 15.4.

But still does not explain the AC issue 3 or 4 days later and 10 min in to my drive. I pulled over unhooked the MLA and the AC worked just fine. That tells me the MLA is the cause. Right?

I would trace the wires and see where they lead. GL Let us know I hope mine is good. Do you have the regular one or the Pro?

I have the regular one. Trace what wires? The MLA is rather simple one cord coming out has a pig tail on it to plug the stock alt plug in to and one that goes back in to the alt, then just a wire that goes to the positive of the alt.

That's about all the wring to a MLA. lol It's rather simple. I just don't want to **** my computer in my truck as I am sure it's not cheap.

wow I was just about to order one.

Old thread and common (most likely) question. Where do you get these? Seeing how the 15.8V kills AC, I am assuming 14.x wouldn't wreck havoc on my important systems? I need so much more than 13V //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
