I have an interesting voltage problem I am hoping to get some perspective on. Recently, my main bus voltage is in the 13 volt range, as opposed to the 14 voltage range it previously was operating at. The alternator does appear to be working (turning off the alt field in flight drops the voltage much further and produces a large current drain on the battery), but for whatever reason the bus voltage is low. It's like the internal regulator in the PP is only trying to charge it to a lower voltage. I've had the Odyssey battery tested two separate times and it appears to be good. The bus ranges from 12.8 to 13.2. If the battery were bad, I'm assuming the bus voltage would be lower than the ~13.
I've followed the PP troubleshooting, and all connections appear to be good with proper voltage from the field and B lead.
Any thoughts?
THanks,
Scott
