Driving home on Friday the check gauge light came on. I looked over all my guages and noticed my Volt guage wasn't reading anything. Why is this I was still able to get home. I shut my 98 XJ off when I got, it started right back up and the volt guage showed movement.
It sat there all weekend while I was doing some other mods, so the battery got drained. I jumped it off, but it wouldn't stay running. I put a different battery in that had a full charge. It started up and ran fine. I got my volt meter out to check the voltage and it 10.7 volts and dropping. What's the deal?
I checked the altinator post on the back and nothing. Is the altinator bad or could it be the regulator? I went ahead and got another altinator this morning just in case.
Please help.
