[QUOTE="snb778, post: 5802797, member: 557170"] [SIZE=14px]BIGG ISSUE...[/SIZE] Im waiting for someone to help me out here though PM, but here's what the new issue is I've been having some voltage issues, and i've about given up here... Apparently for the last few months, my voltage has been dropping down to about 12.5 on the big notes, and I didnt even know this because my amp with the V. indicator light is in the trunk, and I just re-located it to the back seat....Light's don't dim up to i'd say 90% volume. then i get a LITTLE dimming I have 180A alt, Big 2 done (no block to GND yet..someone cut it) Bluetop under hood DekaG31 in back, just re-grinded all GNDS, all are/were good, tried pulling speakers to see if there was a short or something, didnt change Voltage rests at 14.2 car on.. Batts hold 12.9 car off Tried disconnecting the - terminal on batt. to check alt, car stays on so im down to the conclusion this ALT. is a piece of shit... ANY---other ideas would be GREAT!! [/QUOTE]
