Thread: Those that have done the alt. rewire...

I've got a scan gauge now, and it wouldn't be hard to do this for me (since I can see the volts digitally). I may undertake this tomorrow.

A better test would be a multimeter, and measure the resistance from the alternator positive post to the posts at the fuse box.

I didn't do it today. Too much running to do. And, the more I thought about it, I'm not going to see a difference with the scan gauge since the alternator compensates for it. Like Synth said it needs to be under heavy load and the most load I can put on it would be to turn on my fans and rear defroster. I don't have a high power audio system.

I really need a multimeter.
