KA24DE Charging Issues

[ImmaculateNatas]

Hey guys, so I have a KA24E car I installed a DE swap into. The whole car is running and driving perfectly, other than my charging system isn't working. My alternator is putting out 15-16v but it's not charging the battery at all. It's just reading 12v.

I did a battery relocation kit because I plan on boosting my car so I wanted the extra room in the engine bay. I'm not sure if that was the issue because I did that before I finished the swap.

In the link I've posted a couple pictures of the wiring to the T junction box just too see people's opinions if I'm dumb or not lol.

Well...if ur alternator is putting out 15/16v thats high

But sounds like you have a connection issues.

Should have a thick guage wire 0/2/4/6 feed from main battery terminal location , then ran to the new battery location.

Then same gauge wire 0/2/4/6 to a solid ground location. (Cleaned, sanded) like to use a spot on the unibody frame.

I've ran 0 gauge wire for positive/negative cable. Every ground in the car has been sanded to bare metal since I was having starting issues before, which have now been well sorted out.

Your reading 15 volts off the stud of the alternator?

Off of the wire coming from the alternator.

Start car, pull off + cable from battery and check voltage on that cable. What are u getting?
