From: Bud Yerly Alan=2C A good schematic is worth its weight in gold for troubleshooting. Good advice from all on the charging. It should be about 13.7 volts at 500 0 RPM below 15-18 amps draw. I start by pulling all the circuit breakers on the ground. Measure the bat voltage with a volt meter then turn on the master. Check which components come on with the master ( those items not on CBs). The master contactor can draw one amp. Look up your solenoid specs. You need to use a VTVM or amp/ volt/ohm meter to check amp draw as you flip on components. Next=2C ensure your C or control voltage reads battery voltage. Look to se e your alternator to panel or battery contact is secure. Then start pushing in CBs to assess. Make a list of the components on each of your CBs and their draw if you can. As an example=2C a turn and slip g oing bad can be troublesome as the flag doesn't show but it is burning up a mps instead of running at less than an amp. In my opinion=2C the only way to check the health of your electrical system in flight is with a volt and amp meter. You may want to invest in one. Westach makes a nice combo instrument. Keep plugging away you'll find the cause. Bud Yerly=2C Custom Flight Creations=2C Inc. Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE DROID On Aug 31=2C 2015 10:43 AM=2C Alan Carter wrote: Hi =2C Bob=2C Peter.

Now if you switch the MASTER SWITCH OFF=2C it fly's up to 13.1 volts. I take it now that the Alternator has taken over the supply to the fuel pum p provided its turned ON. So with the Master switch off and 13+ volts coming out it does not look lik e being the Alternator or Rectifier=2C wear is the power going ????? 12v is not enough to maintain a full battery Have bought a new battery =2Cbut the old one is as good as the new one=2C s o it not the battery.

Don't know the condition right off. I 'll be back home on Wednesday and will check on it for you. If it still loo ks good, you can have it for the cost of shipping.
