go to walmart, get a cigerette plug in battery tester, there by the battery's and cost 14.99, they show true voltage, and weather it is charging or not. I used mine to diagnose a bad regulator ( wasn't stopping charge ) because it was charging to 14.9 volts, and then the belt would squeal constantly on the alternator, changed the regulator and it charges to 14.5 volts and no problems.You don't know what you've got til it's gone
