RE: Alternator only giving 6 amps

Have the alternator tested off of the car. If its bad, replace it and you are done. If its good, double check the alternator wiring with your diagram and make sure your ground strap is connected from the engine to the firewall or frame. Finally if all else fails replace the voltage regulator. I don't know if anyone can test them, but they are pretty cheap. Good luck!
This thread, so far...
