Dave, go the conductance route. It is a quick and easy way to test you batteries, is as accurate as other methods and will not actively damage your batteries, which is possible with the antiquated load test method. Tim Ex 35-3 Sent from my iPad > On Oct 3, 2016, at 4:11 PM, Franklin Schenk v

I like the KISS method.  Use a multimeter to check the battery when fully charged.  It should be about 12.5 volts.  Check it when the engine is running and it should be 13.5 volts or higher.  If the battery cannot be recharged to 12.5 volts, it is probably bad.  That is when you pull it out and

The best indicator of health IMO is the Amp-Hour capacity compared to the manufacturers rating and historical measurement. Typically you would measure them at a C/20 rate from 100% 50% so a 100AH battery would test at 5 amps for 10 hours. The problem with typical resistance loads is that as the

If it's rf noise generated by the alternator it may be coming in through your GPS antenna as well as data or power lines. If it is rf noise you should be able to hear it with a small AM radio held nearby (tune to around 1400 KHz). I still think your voltage regulator is suspect. When the batt
