UnderLoK Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 oh shit, i looked at the diaphram, i know what you're talking about now... maybe i need to put the diodes there?? It's not in a diagram in this thread man late model GM vehicles read the load off of the ground (what are you talking about 1/0 this has to do with the cars electrical) and then charge accordingly. Read up on it... There are three modes, economy (no charge), charge (12.9-14.7'ish), and start (15-15.8'ish) which tops off the battery. If there isn't a load and it's hot out the ECU tells the system to stop charging to conserve fuel or low charge (12.9-13.x). Maybe the cars don't have it, but I thought all models did as of 07. The only way I know of to force it to charge is to run one of your amps through the pickup which is on my list for this spring (going to run 4g from my 4 chan through it so it sees a load). If at first you do not succeed, you are doing it wrong! -ARSCheck out my walled TBSS build over here4 Fi Team 18s on 2 Cactus K9 DS18 doors on 2 MBQ 1Ks, Vifa pillars on a STL4.500 Pioneer X8500 6 XS Power D7500, 1 3400S Second Skin 2 270a Mechman Alts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnderLoK Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 That looks like it, but afaik (unless it's different on your car) that should go around the ground... Also I was just saying how to resolve the no charge or low charge issue nothing to do with increasing voltage, I just said lemme know if you figure it out Looks like you had already done it (I keep forgetting to do it), but like I said on mine the pickup is on the ground.

speedball1978 Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 my pos and negs are all blue but they're marked with red and black sleeve ends thats how i know what is what.. lmao, 8 million?? OKAY i got some catching up to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedball1978 Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 ok here is my result from a new testing, 1 6 amp diode gained me .6 to .7 volts, my car normally idles 14.0 to 14.1 which is now seeing 14.6 to 14.7 huge difference this is for the newer gm late model cars with the RVC alternator, the diode went inline with the sense wire (mine was orange) but in reality, its not inline, i made a loop, thus making the regulator see an extra load.

97SSBlazer Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Wish non contributing members could not see this. I feel like this could be dangerous if in the wrong hands, so I'll say this again, attempt this AT YOUR OWN RISK. lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
