my car is cranked & running!
Yes we do. What specifically are we doing with it? I know the battery was 12.2v just before cranking it yesterday. Haven't tested it since driving it some. It was 11.8 when we put it (battery) on there though.
With the engine running, check the output wire at the alternator (the fatter wire). The alternator should be putting out at least 14 volts, but generally may be a little higher, in the low 14's range. Then check power at the battery. Due to a little parasitic loss in the wiring, the battery should read in the 13's. If the alternator checks out, but the battery doesn't, you could have a bad cell in the battery or it's a wiring/bad connection issue.
