Alternator in 96 Safari

[Sarah and Jack]

Hi from our 96 Safari in Kansas !!! Our alternator is showing 13.9 off the back and 13.9 at the relay. And 13.9 to the battery isolator, but only 12.8 volts to the batteries. We have checked all fuses, any ideas?

Hi Sarah, and welcome aboard the monaco Forum.



I noticed no one else has responded to your question, so I'm bumping it back on top in hopes you may get more help. Unless you've got it solved already, that is, and then it just means you get more opportunites for folks to say Howdy!

Bills' reply does sound like a good idea, did it work?

Good luck and come back often.
