It sounds like you do not have a decent multimeter & are relying upon dash gauges for accurate voltage readings when troubleshooting.

I would think that the first thing to do would be to go to most anywhere & buy a decent multimeter. Auto parts stores should have them. Radio Shack always has good ones for a somewhat fair price. They will also be able to help you pick a good one & give you a quick how-to.
