December 23, 200817 yr i replaced the alternator on my loyale, for some reason the new one isn't really putting out much of a charge maybe 13 is this normal??
December 23, 200817 yr Well... Maybe your old one was Delivering more Voltage than Normal... Try to Measure with a Tester the Total Amount of Voltage when the Car have the Headlamps On, and the Engine is Around 1,500 RPM`s ... if it still says 13, then it is Normal... if it Lowers Below 12V, it is Bad. Good Luck!
December 26, 200817 yr Author also your oe gauges arent that accurate anymore check it with a voltmeter the 13 was on a volt meter.
December 26, 200817 yr the alt will only put out max volts above 2K rpms, so bring it up to about 2200rpms and check it again, should show 14.4 if its good.
