Electric Fan, Now Truck Wont Charge
I installed one of those taraus fans in my suburban. The past two weeks Ive had to jump the truck when I go to start it. It sits as of now cuz I dont drive it much, so its not a problem yet. I noticed that with the fan off I get a reading of 14 volts at the battery (its charging). Once I turn the fan on it goes to 12 volts. What is the amp rating on a stock alternator? Would a 100 amp alt fix this problem? If not what would?
Thanks
