little back story: back in dec I started my truck up one cold day after work, battery light was on for a while while it was idling. pulled into the shop, got the meter out, and checked. wasn't charging. after a while it would go to 13.1 ish
assuming the alternator was weak, threw an alternator on it... no change in voltage readings
come to learn that the alternator don't start charging till after the gp's are off.
battery light has yet to come on , but yesterday out of curiosity I pulled voltage up, at idle ill only be 12.8, running down the road its 13.2...
batteries never dead, all seems fine, but shouldn't I be in the 14.4v range?
