My HVAC guy is here and I asked to borrow his VOM.

I found that the battery is reading 12.4v and after starting the car it remains exactly that.

I find it hard to believe that replacing the regulator/brush assembly on the original alternator and the replacement I put on are both dead. However, putting the meter between the positive lug on the alternator and the ground shows no voltage.

What should that setup read on a good alternator?
