Hello , i need some more info, all the reply's i have been getting is the battery voltage i'm pass that i just charge the battery full which the battery is a brand new battery anyways plus the alt is brand new.

Voltage regulator is in the PCM, not the alternator. If it isn't charging while running, regulator is probably toast.

Merged the two threads, so we have the solution in the same thread as the problem.
