Hey all,
Looking for input on proper voltage, occasionally have a low battery the morning after night drives that doesn't have enough to crank. Alternator and voltage regulator seem to be working, battery is new. Any thoughts about the results in the picture? In addition to these, I measured the voltage with the motor turning 1500 rpm and the battery disconnected, got 16.7 V at the B+ lug at the alternator and the battery connection. Is there a battery issue or wiring issue between the alternator and battery? I expected to see 14+ on the battery since I'm getting it from the alternator but that's not the case.
