Faulty battery, bad alternator, or both (photos)

OK after you take a deep breath, let's check that out...........if your engine / battery was warm when you took that, it's "a little high." Not too bad but a little

Might be voltage drop in the harness, or a poor ground on the regulator.

Rather than start a new thread - I thought I'd continue this one....

I'm still seeing the alternator charging a little high (14.7-14.9), as Del suggested, so my question is: would it do any harm to add a ground jumper from the voltage regulator to the ground strap?

I actually think that's where i'll start, the ground strap. Last I looked at it, it was covered with grime.
