Re: Battery reverse connected. What's the damage?
When engine running just touch each terminal with the multimeter cables + to + - to -. Set it to the DC low voltage setting.
Should read between 13-15v Test at idle, lights on full beam, and at a higher RPM, should always stay between those figures. Last edited by beabert; 14-12-10 at 05:12 PM. |
