    M1009 passenger side alternator

    Ok did more testing. Batts sit 14.4 but alarming things were drivers alt was showing 137 amps draw at idle with a lot on. Aka lights, heater, 4 ways, and my light bar on. All the items that will be getting used when I am out plowing. Also red wire going from front battery to the junction block...

    M1009 passenger side alternator

    I thought about the shop testing the alternators. They do put them under a load. And its hooked to a machine that is like a EKG for a person that checks the internals of how well all is working.

    O been thinking and talking to a friend in the reserves. What about putting circuit breakers in place of the fusible links? He said there are some trucks that use alot of them??

    Yes they both come on. Yes they both shot off before I start the truck. When the volts get low neither one turns on.

    M1009 passenger side alternator

    I replaced the wire that burnt with another off a m1008 from a guy on here. He said it worked. I pulled hard as u said. And nothing is betting even a little warm. I got the volts to get low with everything on. And the light bar for plowing. With all the take downs and alleys.

    M1009 passenger side alternator

    Yes the damaged area was the diamond area u speak about. The Gp relay is new and tight. I've felt the wires and nothing even got warm. Im at a loss. Im ready to do away with the fusible links
