Hi all! I have a 2001 Job 2, and recently had my battery light come on. The garage has replaced the battery, belt, and TWO alternators now, but still has the same issue. It will not read over 11.5 volts. Is there something else he should be checking also? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
 
If these are rebuilt alt. IMO, they are both bad. With a volt meter on the battery with the trac running. You should about 14vdc. When the batt light is on, it is usually a bad rectifier assy in the voltage regulator.
Time for them to change the alt again.
 
There is a fusible link in the wires that goes bad,,,, Trace and find it... Or the fuse
