Re: [DML] volts one day, none the next

Christian,

The problem you are describing is very rare in the DeLorean, this is probably the reason why you could not find any information.

The voltmeter and battery are connected to two separate circuits both with direct run connections, this reduces the probability of problems from the source components to the effected instruments. The single common connection point is at the rear of the instrument cluster inside the binnacle.

Subject: [DML] volts one day, none the next


Yesterday morning I started my car and backed out of the garage. Before I
was even off my block I noticed that my battery light was on and that my
volt gauge is at 0. I put the car back in the garage and took another car
(luckily a friend of mine is on vacation and he's storing his car at my
house).

The car started fine (yesterday and today), the fuel pump is running
strong, the radio (aftermarket) is working, the vent fans are working...
is this just a fluke with the gauge?

Where should I begin looking to fix this problem? I searched the archives,
but I can only find mentions of low gauges or problems when idling - no
mentions of zero volts.
