hey everyone im having an issue with my alternator not charging like i think it should.
with my e-fan on and the headlights up im getting 11.6 or so volts measured from my safc2 while driving
im trying to figure out if i need a new alternator or what
i cleaned and checked all the grounds i could find so i should be seeing 14v while driving around
i keep reading about our alternators having a ground bolt but im not sure where it is anyone that knows where it might be hiding please let me know
the car is a supra the engine is our precious 1uz its out of a 97 sc400 non vvti
no ps no ac and no hydro fan setup
i figured id be getting better voltage
only downside is that i have the battery relocated to where the back seats should be and im running 2guage wire from the bettery to the front for both my pos and neg terminals
thanks
