I previously posted about my Gen light being on all of the time, (not bright but glowing).
I have had the belts checked and tightened as well as checking the voltage with a meter. Have installed a Voltmeter and it reads 13.5-14.0.
Having the light glow is troublesome to me while driving, mostly at night when you can see it better.
Have been told not to worry about it however I would really like to determine why.
Our coach has 4 Trojan 105's for the house and I am wondering if the Alternator just cannot keep up with them. It is the original 80 amp, perhaps changing to a 100 amp or bigger would correct this?
Would appreciate ideas.
Thanks
