95 Chevy Lumina APV
95 Chevy Lumina APV vin L 3.8 liter. Having problem with intermittent voltage control. Has new alternator and body control module. There was a recall on the aftermarket alternator and had it replaced again. Can watch voltage go from 8v-13.5 and sometimes stay off at 8v. I suspect the PCM because voltage regulator control is powered through it. Any thoughts?

Got it fixed. The PCM fixed the problem. Of course I was in a hurry and forgot to switch the E-prom from the old one to the used PCM I picked up. Had an oopsy moment. Switched the E-prom to the other PCM and all is good again. Big Grin

I think its gonna be a week for electrical headaches. Now I have a chrysler mini van in the shop that lost control power to everything including the ECM. I hate diagnosing Chryslers! :roll:
