Hello,
Hoping someone can give some advice, Issue's noticed when trying to fix strange tach readings. The readings I was getting are all over the board. I have the 40 amp duel regulator charging system. All wiring to tach is intact and when testing charging system i found it to be overcharging. After startup and as boat idles voltage checked at battery rises to around 16.2 and never comes back down. This is with a fully charged battery.
The next step in the manual requires a voltmeter capable of 40 amps which i dont have at the moment. Wondering if there are any other test to help determine what is faulty. Before finding the overcharging condition i tried switching tach feed to the other regulator (Grey wire) and got no reading at all. I have the old style voltage regs with clear epoxy.
Thanks
