I believe that my alternator is over charging. If this is so, I guess
that the regulator is not working right. here's my story. 93 four winns/omc/ford/king cobra. one new 27 battery beginning of the season the boat has 2. put in 1750 watt inverter this year. when engine is running and on battery #2, the invertor reads that it is getting to much power and shuts off, so I use it without the engine running or when the switch is set to the other battery. 3 weeks ago the main fuse (on the engine) popped while I was cruising. the voltage gage on the dash read that I was chargining way to high until I reset the circuit breaker. All seemed fine for a few weeks. yesterday, the main breaker popped twice. I am going to take it to a pro if I can find one who has the time to look at it. What else should I do or look for. hoping to learn some as well as get the boat fixed. the boat has 2 gages to read the batteries. one on the dash and one down below. I know that it should be tested with external meters, but I do not know what or how, but want to learn. thanks |
