is it possible for my alternator to pass a test at AutoZone but my voltage regulator still be bad?
’97 F150 5.4L V8
While vehicle is running my battery light is on, lights are dimmer, wipers slow, and battery gets drained. I had the alternator tested at Autozone they said it was OK. put it back in changed batteries same problem. would I be correct to say my voltage regulator is bad?
It’s possible your voltage regulator is bad, but that should have showed up on the bench test. A lot of voltage regulators are built into the alternator, so if it is bad you will have to replace the alternator. You may have a loose or corroded battery connection or bad cable. I would remove and clean all the connections and terminals, and then have the battery and alternator retested while on the car.
Hope this helps and good luck
