RETURN BACK HERE WITH THE RESULTS OF THE TEST

DO NOT DRIVE OR RUN THE VEHICLE, IF YOU ARE WAY OUT OF THE SPECS IN THE VIDEO........BATTERIES CAN EXPLODE IF THEY ARE BEING OVERCHARGED BY A FAULTY ALTERNATOR

IF YOU DIY YOUR OWN STUFF---I MAY BE ABLE TO SHOW YOU HOW TO SAVE SOME SERIOUS $$$ SHOULD YOU NEED A NEW ALTERNATOR OR ANYTHING ELSE

YOUR TURN
