Bad news I think my alternator took a crap. Good news it’s in my drive way and not on a trail.
My battery died after rotating my winch 6 revolutions to start the wind on my rope. Had to jump start my rig. Alternator is only putting out 12.60 volts. When I rev the engine it goes up to 13.2. I know they are controlled by the PCM. It looks like the alternator is being turned on and just not putting out the amps. Anything to check before replacing the alternator?
