    Alternator undercharging?

    I picked up the same alternator which oddly had a different model number than the 1st one. Everything was the same except the positive cable stud on the back was bigger. The new Delco reads 27.32v and is running normal. I also bought a new 24v regulator for the 1st delco that was showing 24v...

    Alternator undercharging?

    Not impossible I was sent the wrong one, but if you did put a 12v alternator on a 24v system... would it even start or work at all. I wouldn't think so, right?

    Alternator undercharging?

    Right battery after charge is at 7.62v / Left is charging still. But doesn't look promising! *The new alternator was because the old one that came on the humvee went bad. Yes, the Delco 21si is a 24v unit :)
