    High Voltage on Dash Guage

    Also looking at entire negative battery cable. Looks like sensor comes with. Can get an OEM cable from around $35-50. Thinking it may be good to just replace entire cable as I have been reading of other problems from it. Is it a big job to do? I haven't dug into that yet as it's 3 degrees...

    High Voltage on Dash Guage

    So changed out Alternator. Noticed VM on dash still high sometimes. Drove about an hour and half one way yesterday, VM just above 14 on the dash which on the DVOM has been about 14.1, but also never dropped below 14 like it has in the past. Ride back way above and checked when I got home and...

    High Voltage on Dash Guage

    OK so one more update. Took a reading with DVOM after driving form about a half hour. Showing about 15.5. This seem high. The temps are around 10 F and below right now and I am reading that colder temps will cause higher voltage output, but I would expect it to go down after warmed up...

    High Voltage on Dash Guage

    OK so reading with DVOM looks to be OK. 14.85 to 14.89. I guess my only concern now is I never see it go down below 14 like I have in the past. Wondering if that is the temps. First time I have noticed it.

    High Voltage on Dash Guage

    Thanks will do both. Dumb Question, can I swap out the voltage regulator, or just better replacing the alternator?

    High Voltage on Dash Guage

    I am showing voltage in about the 15-16 range on my dash. Gauge has always shown just a tick above 14 and drops below after running for a while. However during last trip Guage always above 14 and seems to ticking higher. The weather has been cold here, this week generally in the 10 degrees or...

    dexos

    Thanks for the info. I had gone to "bob is the oil guy" great site, have used it for the last few years. However could not find the answers I needed on dexos yet. Probably still too new.
