Okay guys so I have quite the puzzle going on. I have a 1995 gmc seirra k1500 with a 5.7 tbi, and 4l60e.
My issue is that the cab of the truck is having low voltage. So I tested the battery, alt. And they both work fantastic. Inside the cab however is another story. I have a voltage display on an inveter running of my cigarette lighter and both the dash and the display will drop down to sometimes 8 volts when I have the headlights on, move the plow, even just going down the road. I tried having headlights off and will still do the same thing. The headlights do seem to make it more noticbke though the radio has cut out before many times when it drops thay low. Battery cables are tight on the battery and seem in good shape with no cuts, burns, or anything. In really at a loss but I can't keep having the cab be such low voltage. Is there a ground in missing or something like that Maybe? ANY advise woukd be amazing. Battery stays at good voltage when the cab is low voltage as well. Any ideas?
