- 1992 Explorer XLT
ok so i have been scouring the site and have gone through about 100 previous threads on this subject. this is what i have so far...
1992 explorer xlt, 5sp, 4x4, 4.0l
new duralast platinum battery... about 6hours old
new duralast gold 130amp alt... also 6 hours old
have checked the 15amp fuse.
have checked for continuity at the back terminal.
can not find the charge light on my dash anywhere so it is my primary suspect!
all battery cables are new.
ran out of lugs doing "big 3" so alternator wiring is only one not upgraded.
only 3 lights come on when i turn key to run position, check engine/ rear antilock/ seatbelt.
was having minor charging issues, then one day would not start. noticed voltage drop to 9v [i assume that would be about where "N" in normal is, when it was normal it would stay around "M"] then rev and it would jump back up.
at this point i am trying to determine where the charging light is and what other lights should be comming on when i flip the key to the run position.
thank you for your help in advance, it is greatly appreciated.
