Thanks guys! I got back to it today (finally!) Started the car, it's charging normal at 14.3v! Who knows! My tester, volt gauge, sniper hand held all read 12.3v the other day, now all reading 14+. Now I did not hook up the red wire (gauge wire) at all, just taped it off. Right or wrong? Right now, I'm gonna consider it working. Take care, Jeff
