Ok, now i put in a 3g alternator a while ago, using 4 gauge from the post to the positive battery, unmodified d-plug, and a female spade on the white/black wire from the square plug. ok, now the problem. Every once in a while, the amp light will light up and the volt meter will show just at the top of the red. According to a dvom, its only reading 10.98 volts at the battery post and at the post on back of the alternator. Now its doing this perminantly and i can't figure it out. i double check/cleaned all connections, but still the same thing. The only thing i did recently was routed the parking lights/foglight through a relay to stop melting switches. i don't know if thats related or not, but.... Anyway, after i did that it was fine for a few days, now this problem. Any ideas will be greatly appriciated because i have to drive 300 miles sunday.
Added info: battery is 1 year old, never had a problem with it, 3g is 6 months old, and got the alt checked at advance and it checked out good.
thanks
