I was testing my alternator today using the matrix in the shop manual. I'm pretty sure the alternator is shot- I was getting 8v (battery voltage only) at the BAT post- seems like I should get 12-14v. However, I continued the test and checked the voltage at the the #1 connector. The matrix says it should be between 2 and 4 volts. Mine came back at battery voltage. Yikes!
My question is: should I be worried? Does this indicate something is wrong with the car's wiring harness? I apologize in advance for my ignorance.
