. As someone else asked, does it really stop putting out voltage on the fat wire - easily measured on the fat wire with a voltmeter - voltage should drop to maybe 13.2 V as opposed to the 15 - 16 Volts when alternator is delivering power.

Finn, yep I realize there is still voltage on the fat wire since it hooked directly to battery which is showing 12.3 volts when you disconnect the little line from the battery to the alt plug. But there is no current flow which says to me the alternator is not producing anything , right.

 

Did not comprehend all Charlie said about frying electronics with over voltage, but hope I do before leaving Slobvovia ON this week end.

 

Are you flying up Finn?
