codytotheh Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 i replaced the alternator on my loyale, for some reason the new one isn't really putting out much of a charge maybe 13 is this normal?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Well... Maybe your old one was Delivering more Voltage than Normal... Try to Measure with a Tester the Total Amount of Voltage when the Car have the Headlamps On, and the Engine is Around 1,500 RPM`s ... if it still says 13, then it is Normal... if it Lowers Below 12V, it is Bad. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scooby Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 the alt will only put out max volts above 2K rpms, so bring it up to about 2200rpms and check it again, should show 14.4 if its good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
