I finally got the flow chart uploaded.
http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/data/15/GMC_charging_system_checkout.pdf
There are no glitzy colors, graphics, etc. So almost anyone should be able to print it put on almost any type of printer as needed.
I tried to address the alternator charging system as shipped by GM. Non-GM owner installed options (good or bad) were not addressed.
I did not mention the APC as it should have no bearing on the flow charts, meter readings. Also the APC has a very low failure rate. (It is an ingenious device only one diode and a wire with a couple of connectors.)
I tried to keep this chart as simple as possible remembering that some people are intimidated just by us asking them to use a voltmeter for the first time.
I figure this is a starting place so we do not have to keep typing the same directions over and over again as each new help request comes along. Just point them to the chart.
After someone finds a problem area using the chart we can zoom in and address that specific area with them in more detail.
