[DML] Re: Hot start Voltage problem

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxx>]

You probably have a defective semi-conductor in the alternator voltage
regulator. I can suggest an easy test the regulator operation.

There is a certain risk of injury when performing this test, please contact
us directly for details.
