Yup, still working on my malfunctioning charging system. Here's what I've done:
- Checked all connections. Cleaned where necessary including the battery ground at both ends (which were pretty clean).
- Checked voltage at battering under a range of RPMs. Got readings in the low 12 volt range.
- Checked output of alternator from the connection (under the seat) shown in the picture below. Got reading of low 30s at around 4500 RPMs.
So now I'm thinking the problem's with the alternator 'cause I should be getting readings of 60-70 volts? Thoughts, experience or otherwise?
