Subject: | apparent alternator issue |
I have a vp100 and single alternator, single battery, 2 EFIS chelton system similar
to Z11 type wiring diagram.
I'm having trouble with my alternator charging. Although I have a 50 amp load
analysis (if I have everything turned on and max) I have the 60 amp alternator
recommended by VAN's, but rarely use more than 30-35 continuous. Even so, I
frequently get battery drain warning below 12.5 volts, and I have to conserve.
But it is very inconsistent and for some unknown reason it will bounce back
up above 13.5 and charge along just fine. I don't think it is the battery,
because I'm not finding any problems on the starting side. But the problem does
seem to be getting worse.
thanks for any suggestions,
ajay
