I've further improved grounding, including under the dash. Voltage is marginally improved. It is less likely to cycle the edic, but not completely solved. *shrug* Now what?

I was thinking about back when I replaced all my battery cables with 1/0 gauge and I realized I couldn't remember doing a cable from the engine to the frame. So I checked that. Sure enough it was old smaller cable. I cleaned up the connections and now I'm getting 13.26 at the passenger side...

Passenger side battery goes to frame, and I cleaned that connection. Driver's side battery goes to engine (like PO had it), and I cleaned that connection. Alternator is, as you say, grounded through bolts to the engine. I could move the driver's side ground to the frame, but this problem is new...

I just ran it at 2000 rpm and got 13.69 without lights or fans. Then I turned on the lights and fans and the edic started cycling. Every time it cycled the voltage dropped a little more and couldn't recover. Eventually it got down to 12.25 and didn't seem to be dropping too fast to recover...

We drove for about 300 miles yesterday. I had lights on until about the 200 mile mark when my edic started acting up again. Turning off the lights made it stop. Turning lights or vent fans on made the edic cycle again until I turned them off. Any thoughts?

Yes, factory lights.

I promise I looked and didn't find, so feel free to just point me to it if I failed to find this information. Voltage was dipping below 8 volts whenever I had fans and lights going, which was triggering my edic controller to rhythmically engage. I've replaced my voltage regulator and my brushes...

While waiting for responses I did the logical thing and put the old part back in. Now it started, and the symptoms of a bad regulator are gone. I'm still hoping for input on what is going on. So if you have any insight please share it. When it started it was just dumb luck. There was a break in...

I have an '84 bj60. I replaced the regulator in my alternator. The starter is clearly working fine by the sound of it. For some reason it won't engage and actually start now. I've included a picture of the part just to be sure we're all on the same page. Please help!

You will switch the regulators and the glass. I just ordered them through the website. If you're not finding them it might be because they aren't in stock. Maybe? I'm having trouble finding any listed anywhere right now.

I paid a little more than 600, and got them from Cruiseryard. They aren't a simple swap-out, you have to drill holes and make minor modifications if you want to keep the outdoor squeegee on your window.

They aren't the easiest, or cheapest, upgrade to find. I actually had to choose between these and something else based on budget, but it makes a s***load of difference when you don't have AC, and my wife and I are windows open kinds of people.

Mine definitely swing a ways past the stock mirrors. I'll have to fiddle and see how much of a difference it might actually make. Installing them was a bit of a bitch. Did you have any trouble getting the door card and wing window in at the same time? I ask, because maybe I was doing things the...

Ok, those look like they open far enough to get a decent blast of air, they go past perpendicular. BUT, I like to have mine open to hit me right in the abdomen, does the mirror prevent that? It looks like it might not quite make it.
