Ron,
I only access the DML when I am at work. Left Friday at 6pm. Yes, you are
correct in that measuring current is done with the ammeter inline.

Hey Will, that's volts. You want to measure AMPs, me thinks. ;-) You have
to measure AMPs in line also, me thinks. Who's the electrical expert around
here......hey Mr Eng, where are you???

Ok guys, this has me baffled. My friend dropped by just now and his GEN
light was on. Ok, no prob I say. He cranks it up and the light comes on.
The dash shows it is charging normal. WTF?!?!?! Grab the volt/ohm meter.
13.91V @ the alt and 13.90V at the battery. That is just fine. WTF?!?!?!
Turn truck off. Reset comp. Crank it up. Whew! No light. <10 secs
later>
GEN <f*ck f*ckitty f... f... f...!!!> So we hook an Autometer volt gauge
up
and drive around for a while. It hold steady between 13.9 and 14.0 at all
times. WTF?!?!?! This one has me baffled. Any ideas?
Will
