Measure the voltage on the brown at the alternator and the battery with another instrument as well as where ever the onboard meter is connected. A difference in voltage between instruments indicates

I'll check those. I know 14.5 is normal, but this is creeping higher. Oh, the twin fans were replaced by a PO with a larger single puller fan. That works well. Probably 12in. Paul. -- ______ Paul T.

The headlights draw a lot of current. If you have a voltmeter, check the voltage at the battery at different times to see if the alternator is working or if the battery is holding a charge. Maybe a w
