Hi all, I’m pulling my hair out. I have twin Volvo Pentas. Stbd runs and maintains 13.5 v. Port runs initially at 11.5v and gradually drops over an hour or two to 10v. All batteries are new and charge fine on Shore Power or Generator. New belts and tensioned correctly.
With engine shut down I get battery voltage at alternator terminals which suggests to me cables are fine.
So, I remove the alternator and off to shop to buy replacement….. shop bench tests my suspect alternator and it’s kicking out 14v.
Anyone suffered from something similar? Thanks in advance
