truck details 86 dodge ramcharger se 360 4x4 auto tilt no a/c. problem charging system failure. symptoms electrical outputs diminished things light light output power windows and wipers are slow etc. increasing load on the system makes lights go dim stereo to shut off wipers to slow and so on. increasing engine or idle speed does not counter this effect nor cause the system to come back up to full power. vehicle doesnt start without a jump. tests before it died on me i stopped into a schucks and had them do their electrical test. the result pointed to the alternator as the failure. i took the alternator in by itself the first test was done in the vehicle. two bench tests showed the alternator to be fine. next i tested the battery voltage with the truck off. voltage was just a touch under 12v yet i had to jump it in order to get it running again. with the truck running i checked voltage at the battery again and it still read 11.4. revving the engine did not increase voltage. i then disconnected the voltage regulator and ran a jumper from the green wire connection to ground to perform a full field test. with the truck running again i tested voltage at the battery leads and it read 13. again voltage did not increase or drop with engine speed. my manual indicated the voltage should jump to between 14 and 16 volts and to only run this test long enough to get a reading. after i saw the voltage went up 13v but stayed steady i feel i have ruled out the regulator as the problem. this is also still under voltage correct normal voltage should be around 14v. bypassing the regulator only bumped it up slightly. following the test procedure in my manual i then disconnected the neg batt cable and then hooked up a test lamp between the negative cable and negative post. the light came on. i disconnected the alternator and the light stayed on. the manual says this means there is a short. next leaving the test lamp in place and the ignition off i started pulling fuses to find out what system the short is in. the light goes off when i pull the fuse at #7 horns and #9 dome stop lmp. is it interesting to note that the test light will come back on if i pull the headlight switch out now we come to the crux. it would seem i have a short in both of those circuits. but do i really heres why i ask. the test lamp is acting in lieu of a direct connection of the cable to the post. i would expect that the test lamp would of course come on if i pull the headlight switch out because lights work even when the ignition is off. the horn and interior/brake lights are also made to work when the ignition is off. but i would expect the test lamp to be off unless i was doing something to close those circuits like honking the horn or actually stepping on the brake or turning on the interior lamps. i pulled the leads to the horns brake light switch and interior lights and still read voltage at those fuse slots and the test lamp is on unless i pull those two fuses. i jiggled each of the smaller harnesses around hoping to see the test lamp blink off but no dice. my manual does have the wiring diagram but only shows the circuit for #9. for #7 8 and 10 it only shows their presence on the fuse block not their wiring. so what do i do here does any of this make sense to anyone where else should i be looking or what else can i test thanks rk has a similar problem with a ford ranger turned out to be the cable running from the battery to the starter was corroded inside of the wiring. you couldnt see it with the naked eye but when you cut the cable it was all green and corroded. it will pull a load on the battery even when not running like your 11. something volts indicate above and will never let the battery charge due to the constant drain. im pretty sure thats where your problem is. -- ------moparman------ ---scud coordinates 32.61204 north 96.92989 west--- --remove clothes to reply!-- tedward said eggs are really good for you. they have all the nutrition needed to make a chicken. .
