No Bed For Me!
Howdy, all. Been a while, again.
Fine, so, vacuum booster failed, and brake fluid bad, so replaced booster and MC. Bleeding took forever.
As soon as I started her up, the factory volt gauge read low, like 10.5 volts. Multimeter showed 12.5 or so. Tested batteries, one bad. Replaced. Charged both to near 100%. Gauge still reads low. Alternator not charging at all, even at speed.
Replaced alternator. No change! Grrrrrrrrrrrr
What's left? Wiring to the alternator? But why would that change when I never touched it before the no charge?
TIA
