<p class="MsoNormal"> We checked that connection and it was
clean and tight. We are STILL not getting any voltage from
the alternator to the battery. We walked through the
procedure in Dan Master’s book 3 times and every time, it
points to a bad alternator which I had tested and it’s putting
out over 13 volts (maybe not enough but more than 12). Why
doesn’t this show up at the battery?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We even tested at the back of the
alternator and it only shows 12 volts (?). <o:p></o:p></p>

the 76 TR6 (well all the CF series cars) the alternator
output (brown) wire connects to the power tap on the
positive battery positive cable with a 3/8 QC

connection even a good alternator will not charge the
battery. Check that out before you spend any more
money.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Here’s a synopsis – Almost new battery went
dead. Charged battery and took car to shop.
Meter shows alternator is not charging battery
(only 12 volts, not 14.6 as per Dan Master’s
book). Buy rebuilt alternator and the same thing
happens. Swap alternator for a second rebuilt
unit – same thing, battery is not being charged.
Tried 3 different meters – all showed 12 volts.
Hard to believe I got 2 bad rebuilt
alternators. What’s wrong??<o:p></o:p></span></p>
