On my way to work today my alternator spiked over 17v and now is only charging at 13.0v. This is the second mysterious failure I have had with this alternator. Ironically when this happened I didn't even have my stereo above talking level.

What should I do?

Video I shot this morning after +17v spikes. 12v is depressing.....

April 25th 2011 was when the alternator failed the first time after being installed for a month. Now 4 months later it failed again.

Does this alternator have a bad voltage regulator?????

Eric, I'm going to have Rob chime in on this.. I made him aware of the topic.

Thanks Kyle. I called Rob yesterday and left him a voicemail.

Eric, I saw that you dropped it off. We will take a look at the alternator and see what's up. We do have an idea of what's causing this problem but I want to make sure we're correct before I post about it. I will keep you updated though! Thanks for being a great hamster for the Hyundai's

Thank you for fixing the alternator. Maybe I will have consistently 14.4-14.7 voltage now as well.

Like I said on the phone if you have a customer with any questions about this install please contact me and I will help any way I can.
