While going over the electrical system of the truck I noticed that at idle I am only producing 6.20 Volts, which seems very little. I imagined that at least I should be generating 7.2 or 7.5 volts to keep the battery up... With the parking lights on the value drops to 5.89 Volts or so, with the headlights on I don't register anything...;(
Now my truck does not have a voltage regulator which should not affect how much voltage the generator should produce to start with... My guess is that the brushes must be almost worn out and it is time to rebuild/clean... Any other thoughts? Another question, how tough is to add a voltage regulator to the system, and will I see a greater improvement in terms of battery charging and handling a load...
