Got it running today with the same old battery and alternator, and there's still fluctuation, especially when at WOT. But if i drove carefully it would stay at approx 15V. ! And when i turned it off it would start right up ! so i measured the voltage at the battery posts and it read 12.6V. So...

Could my problems be related to dead/bad battery. I'we took it out of my Jeep and connected it to the battery charger and left it over night. When I got down this morning the charger was just clicking and the battery reads aprox 9V. dead. The Optima red top battery in our dragster reads 12V...

Thanks 5-90 ! I have recently replaced the main ground from firewall to cylinder head. it was missing completely when i got the Jeep. Will go through these grounds on my Jeep again. The last time the Alternator's rotor was toasted, I got one that was working from a friend. Maybe it's the...

I gave it start today and took it for a spin, The headlights and dash lights fade when the voltage drop (WOT) or over 2500-3000 Rpm. When i got home i parked it and it wouldn't start, did just click the relay. My thoughts were also about loose belt, Will check that. Best regards.

The last time it was the alternator, but now i got this problem again. The volt meter would carge little above 14V in normal driving but hitting WOT it would just go down to 9V but after letting it idle for a few moments it would go back to normal, sometimes it would go to 16V ! or so. Also i...

What are you guys running in your modified Jeep XJ/MJ on 35" + tires ? I'we heard that 1991 + Chrysler corp did lock these transmission (AW4) in power mode and removed the button ? Also heard that having it in comfort mode shortens the transmission's life and also sometimes hesitates to take...

What i ment is that this doesn't happen when backing the car in reverse and then brake. Then theres no clunk opposite to what happens when driving forward. Also the Jeep is in the front wheel drive only since the rear driveshaft has a bad CV joint. Will check the motor and tranny mount. What...

No one have a clue ?

I recently had to put my Jeep to front wheel drive only, because my rear CV joint is/was in a need of an up-grate. Everything was Ok at first but recently I started to notice this low and quiet but still very noticeable clunk when i push the brake pedal, Also thought that it happened while...

Shouldn't the alternator light turn on if the alternator is failing ?

Yes Thanks allot, Will check the alternator this weekend. :)

Hope i'm welcome from Iceland... I'we got this problem with my Jeep now. It starts up fine, and runs very good, But while running the volt meter starts to fluctuate from 14V-11/12V and while at it the dimmer starts to fade, but everything else works flawlessly. This fluctuation is sometimes...
