Thanks for the responses.

I do have a digital meter and have discovered that the battery voltage at rest is 12.4. Voltage drops some in response to the staring operation and, during engine operation, does not increase as it should in response to normal alternator output. There is no current getting to the battery, but I do not yet know whether this is the result of an alternator, regulator of wiring fault.

Should I expect to see a potential across the conductors leading from the alternator? I would disconnect the connector and check with the engine running, of course.

I'll check this tomorrow.

Thanks for the input.
