Re: [DML] Low Voltage

["K Creason" <dmc4687@xxxx>]

Hey- I've got in-laws in Tyler!
I head up there once in a while (sans-D, pro-fam). We'll have to get
together when I do.
Have you checked the voltage on the alternator itself? It's much more
reliable than the instrument in the dash. I called Houston about mine (it's
A/C season alright) and James (I think) told me to check the alternator
itself because the instrument tended to be a little off.
I still worry about it though as I cruise through traffic with AC on.
I kind of like Hank's little meter.

Have you checked to see if your AC system is charged? It might be empty, and
that would cause it to click relays and not stay on.

> I recently replaced my alternator. Afterwards, the ammeter shows very low
charging voltage until I rev up engine and then only to about 12V.
Recently, my AC would not engage. Tech told me I had low voltage problem.
Also there is an intermittent "clicking" sound from somewhere within the
dash or rear compartment. Is this related? Do D's have voltage regulators?
Any suggestions as to why I would have chronically low voltage?
