All,

I too have just put one of these new type alternators into one of my daily drivers.

The most difficult part was connecting the ground wire.

What's interesting about this one is I read between 14.5 and 15.0 VDC at the battery, however my son's phone charger which plugs into the cigarette lighter now only reads 13.4 VDC, whereas before it would read what was being seen at the back of the battery.

I don't have time to track this down, but at least I no longer have flickering headlights and dash lights.

Now on to the next problem, because there is always a next problem to fix.

Ugh. It just never ends.

Matt
