blross91 Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 After installing my 250 amp alt. I have a battery not charging code pop up on my dash. I check my volt meter,and use a multimeter and both said 15 volts but after a while itll drop to 12 and the car shuts off. Has anybody had similar issues?

reedal Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Did you wire the stock charging wire back on to it?

blross91 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Its a 250 xp. And yes i put the fuseable link back on it. Also im looking at where you make the connection with the wiring harness. And it only had 3 pins. The stock alt has 4.. could this be the problem?

gdaigle Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 You always want to upgrade your charging wire/do big 3 when installing high output alts. I would call DC on Monday.

blross91 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 What about the pins inside the wiring harness. The stock alt had 4 and the dc powers has 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Did you do the big 3 or just hook it up with the stock wiring? That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
