I know, another one of these I'm sure. I've looked far and wide for a decent answer but still can't find one. Here goes. A few weeks back a wire came loose from the connection on the back of the alternator, I'm assuming causing my voltage to drop off and turn on check gauges frequently. While trying to remove the nut to crimp another connection, I broke the post. So a new alternator it is. Installed and now my voltage spikes on the gauge and throws the check gauges light. As it does this, my handheld meter is showing 14.6 so I know the spike is a false reading. Tonight, wanting to just throw money at this thing, I replace the external regulator just cause it was cheap. No go, didn't help, obviously. So then I look at the rmf and see if I can get a new one. Just for the helluvit I start it disconnected and it spikes the same way it would if it was connected. Do you think the rmf could be bad then? Something is not telling the pcm that everything is ok. And from what I read on rmf's is that that's its job. To show a false load to the pcm. Thank you for any insight or replies. Attached is pic of rmf
