1054152 hey again, i have a '79 CJ7. straight 6, 3 speed manual. The alternator and battery are both new and tested out OK. I get all 14 volts charging when my jeep is running, but when i put on the brake lights or the headlights, my voltage meter drops to 10 or 11 and the engine idles...

1054184 hey all, thanks for the good info. The jeep does run great, and starts right up. Of course it idles rough when the voltage is drained. If it is the alternator having problems running at load, what kind of repairs are we talking? I have an external serperate voltage regulator, could...

1053025 I think that my horn has shorted out and is draining my battery when i turn the ignition on. The horn "clicks" when i press it, and the battery is now dead. I was wondering if anyone had some info on this. I have a column ignition, not orginal. also was wondering if someone could...

1053228 newbie here again. Just tryin to get the CJ past inspection right now. Runs fine. Having problems with the dash lights. Namely left turn signal and high beam indicators. Assuming that they are burned out because right indicator works. how the *&%@ do i replace the bulbs? Do i...

1053237 me again, figured out what was happening. My battery won't recharge when i jump the Jeep. My horn keeps shorting and working again. If i turn on any lights (headlights, reverse lights, etc..) all my dash instruments (oil pressure, voltage meter, etc..) cut off and flat out. they...

1053982 just replaced my alternator, no problems there. Voltage running at 14. But whenever I turn on my headlights my voltage indicator drops to zero and my jeep idles roughly. Probably a wire grounding out somwhere, but i haven't seen one that's obvious. Any good advice would be...

1053996 i just installed a rebuilt alternator and it works great except that my headlights cut off my voltage. I was told that i put it in upside down. But i put it in exactly as it had been. I'm wondering if when it was rebuilt if it was rebuilt and put back together upside down?? does...

1054113 me again. ALternator is ok. Whenever i turn on my headlights or brake lights my voltage drops to 10 or 11. BUT, if i put the clutch in the voltage goes back up to where it should be (13 or 14). Any ideas??? this one is definately confusing me. Guys at the store said i might need a...

1054215 having trouble maintaining full voltage when putting my alternator undre a load (i.e. headlights, brake lights). Its a '79 CJ7 with a new alternator that is good. It's been tested and did fine. Could it be the voltage regulator?? it's seperate from the alternator. I'm not too...
