What's up guys, I have been trying to chase down a charging issue and need some help. I just replaced my alternator which seems to be working properly most of the time. About 30% of the time when I'm driving my voltage drops to around 12.4 volts and doesn't seem to be charging but most of the time I am 13.5-14v. I have voltage at the excitor wire but my battery light isn't working. I replaced the battery light tonight and the light still isn't working and there is still voltage at the excitor. Does the light have to be on to trigger something with the excitor wire even though it already has voltage there? I haven't checked all of grounds yet because the battery light wasn't coming on but that will likely be my next step. Does anyone know of a wiring diagram for the battery light/instrument cluster so I can chase this down?
Thanks in advance. I still actually need to do an introduction post but have been too busy running down issues on this thing to get it out for some pictures.
