Greetings GMC friends;
a couple years ago I was having problems with an alternator putting out 16.5 volts and blowing headlights (a problem that seemed to start when i had an anonymous mechanic do an alternator swap for me). Back then, somebody on this list gave me a step-by-step process to check and make sure that the 2 wires on the left side were not reversed. I can’t seem to find this email, so if anybody here could remind me of the process, i’d greatly appreciate it! (Also,. i recall reading here somewhere that having a loose wiring connection with an APC circuit inline could also cause high voltage output from the alternator?) Just trying to get to the bottom of this… once and for all! Thanks much,
Greg
