  1. So.. The not charging issue came to an end.. I found out that the fusebox is not receiving 12v as its suppose to. Thus not able to provide suffocient voltage to activate the coil inside the voltage regulator.. I measured voltage from battery post to starter motor = 12.5V Measured from battery post to fusebox = 3V (too much voltage drop) Measured resistance from battery post to alternator B+ = 0.3ohms Measured resistance from battery post to fusebox = 90+ ohms So i traced the thick white wire..removed the insulation tape to see where it taps into..and i found out a heavily oxidized join, so i cut section by section until i see a good bare copper conductor. Gave it a good squirt of contact cleaner Pull a new 8 Gauge cable from battery to the alternator B+ post. And join them back to the fusebox Measured the resistance from battery post to alternator B+ = 0.2 ohms Measured the resistance from battery post to fusebox = 0.3 ohms Since then, i started the engine and it charges right up..measuring 14.5V across battery terminals.. Next is headlights wiring which altezzaclub has posted, and also tackling something funnier which is whenever i press the brakes, it turned on the cluster light..its following the brake light.. By the way. Just to share my ride on new wheels 15x8x9 et0 wrapped on 195/50/15 all around
