Like 48 hours and 10 min. Not kidding,came DHL. When I tracked it was in the UK and the next thing I get a email that it is in Ohio.The next day I get a email its out for delivery.
Hope you have that luck. Shipping was like $160+ but even with shipping it was less than anybody in the states.
Nothing that I know of ? Battery's pass a capacitance test (Snap-on) ?
Went looking for grounds. Found one at the starter. It looks to be just a post. But it was not tight.
Pulled it off cleaned the lines and install 2 star washers and reinstalled.
No luck,dip on voltage was not as low but...
I did what Will suggested with the battery's. Changed position. Only using 2, 12 volt battery's.
After that I did first start of the day. Battery's read 12.4 and 12.1
Now showing 18 v and 30 v running at the Alt.
Flashing amber at 14v led and flashing red 28v led. Every once in a wile I get...
Yep ,did the a to d and a to b and d to b stuff. 2.1. OL ( my meter reads,ouch) (this looks to be a winding and diode test ? ) Then its back to having a "Known Good Regulator " thing.
I will take a look at that,Will. Need to look for the chassis to cab ground.
Nothing on the tach feed, yet. I have not installed my tach yet.
Funny thing is it was ok for about 5 short trips then poof, low gauge and red light.
14v = RED, 28V = No Light.
Rewired your way.(thanks Suprman)
Have not pulled the spare and looked at the polarity box.( will do that today )
Ends all clean at the battery and Atl.
On first start (after sitting overnight ) I see the Atl. try to make 28+ volts then back to battery voltage +-...
I would ask for your thoughts on the next step in a repair or replacement of my charging system.
I'm on my second voltage regulator. The repair manual is great if you have a "know good regulator or a alternator". Some help.
I now have a 14 volt read light on the regulator.(better than no lights...
Door was a little pricey. Going to us a RV door. Found one that is about $55 and is 16" x 12". The toilet comes with a template and I need to see if their are and problems with this door ...
Think you will like it. I have not started the walls inside my build. I feel having things on hand before starting in the way to go.I'm going to run a 1" vent line to the roof.
Well the new tray will be a big pain to install ! Lots of things need to be unbolted ! Like everything .
So I'm on to another idea. Its the 4 x $300 battery's that is on my mind. Out west the battery's are good for maybe 3 years,its the heat. And the one's with free replacement for 3 years are...
Started work on the battery tray for the G 31 battery system. All glassed up and ready for some timing. Just made a simple mold so the tray would have a outside wall.
Will try a test fit Saturday.
I did that on my Semi/RV. What a pain !
Here is the system. IMHO its the way to go.

If you go with a spaer cassette it...
Look what came today ! All the way from the UK and it was cheaper ( by $200)
than I could get it in the US ? Even with the shipping (it came 2 day) Go figure.
