It's the meter in the car I was using, because I don't think I have a volt meter..at least not one that gives actual numeric readings. I'm pretty sure it's an internal voltage regulator.
When I first installed it, the guage in the car was reading slightly above "12" which is the middle reading, and when I drove around, it dropped down to 8. When i got home, I turned the car off, and it started it two or three times, and it seemed to have plenty of juice
To check the voltage TO the alternator would I check the wire that runs into the back of it? I will also have to check those links maybe, too.
