I'm Awesome
Hello,
Any idea what's the max alternator voltage we can run without killing the stock radio, gauges, ECM, etc.?
My truck is an '89 5.7L C2500 with stock gauges, a '7427 TBI ECM from a '95, and stock '89 radio.
I have a couple aftermarket amps that will go into protect at 16 volts. The battery can be charged up to 16.8 volts so it's not a concern.
I was thinking about setting the alternator to around 15.5V. I've been trying to look up info on the electronics in this truck but I can't seem to find any info on working voltage range limits.
Any info is much appreciated.
Thank you
- I've looked up individual parts (ecm, fuel pump, electric fans) on Rockauto, AC Delco, and the Standard Motor Products websites, if they list anything it's just 12 volts, not a max or min
