Re: [DML] Incorrect Voltage Reading



Declan,

Your low voltage reading at the dash voltage is an indication of a "voltage drop" somewhere in the electrical system. To correct this problem thoroughly clean the three main ground connections. Follow this by removing and cleaning all of the fuses in the fuse box, it might be easier to just purchase a complete set of fuses.

After completing all of the above repeat the voltage tests. Sample the voltage at various components inside the electrical compartment. If all the readings match the alternator reading but the dash voltage is low than you probably have a low reading dash voltmeter.

Hi All
Any time I ask a question I like to start with a big thank you to
all the group. You guys are the best. 
With my fans and lights on, I see my voltage meter reading very low
9v. I am worried that I would loose power completely. I had replaced the
alternator with a higher ampage one. But this is the weird thing, If I but
an multimeter on the battery I get 14.5v, at the same time I have only 9v
on the dash gauge ? Am I testing my voltage from the wrong location.
