Neo_frog Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Just wondering if this happened to anybody else. i started my car this morning and my voltage will not go past 11.3 volts. i have a mechman alt and need help. Does it stay at 11.3 or does is slowly drop as you drive? Quote Need an install? Hit me up.[email protected]Got car audio questions?

Kian Posted January 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 no it just stays @ 11.3 when i drive it's not going up. when i turn my lights on, it goes down to 11.2 then will go back up ot 11.3-.4 after i turn my lights off. right now i think i am running my car straight off my batteries.

Kian Posted January 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 its a 3 pin wire plug but only 2 are used. the other one is for my voltage controller.

itssteve Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 ok well check the other two with a dmm on both sides of the plug and make sure you are getting a switch voltage, and you will also have a constant voltage wire. the thicker one should be constant and the other switch. that was my problem the plug corroded and no voltage could get through to turn the alt on. and mechman said that over time some plugs will do this.

Kian Posted January 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 You my friend deserve a cookie. it turn on. when i hard wired a 12 volt wire to the on/off switch plug. So what i'm going to do is have my alt running off of my accessory . line so when my car turns on the alt will turn on. THANK YOU.
