Re: Help find the missing link

thanks for the reply I will try and switch out connectors with smaller resistors.
So this illustrious brown alternator wire, is there a corresponding fuse or wore that goes to the voltage gauge on the inside of the cab. I know you mentioned an ignition source 12 volt, there are spots on the fuse box that I can run an ignition hot to the L terminal. in other words replace the Brown wire and start from scratch. S terminal going to the junction block right side stud as I'm looking at it from the front, this is the correct spot?


Franken I've measure voltage at the bat with the truck off I get 12.6 volts
with it running I'm getting 14.2
Same results at the alt battery stud.
My issue is when the engine running I'm getting 14.2 volts at the engine side. inside the cab I'm getting 13.5 once I start using the elec fans, headlights etc etc my voltage drops.
I'm just trying to figure out how to get the full 14.2 voltage at the fuse box to power all my accessories.
