my idle voltage is around 13.3-13.4 and my at load votlage is around 13.5-13.7
is that anything to worry about? possibly regulator on the way out? seems just a little low. i know 13.8-14 are about where it SHOULD be but i just wanna make sure so i don't get stranded. the voltmeter in the car just started to show around 12-13 instead of the consistant 13.5+ that it was hovering around. i know its not perfect nor 100% accurate but that concerned me after the car was good and hot it dropped the voltage which is why i checked it with a multimeter. just a few concerns. |

below 13.1 when idling and everything turned off is the minimum.
