I replaced my Nippondenso alternator (Van's part # 14684) which had 420 hours with a rebuilt/loaner ALT that has zero hours. The old alt would spike to 16.1 volts causing the EMS to alarm. The replacement alt spiked one time in the last 1.5 hours, alarmed briefly, then stayed within the settings set up in the EMS.
Nevertheless, it constantly vacillates between -2 amp and +3 amps even though the load (radios and lights) remains constant.
When the original ALT was new, I never recall an over voltage circumstance. What's your experience with these alternators? Are you experiencing vacillations in voltage and amperage w/o changing the electrical load?
