I have a '03 38 Open with the Cummins 480CE's. This weekend the voltage gage (analog) was buried to the left. I know the alternator is putting out because I can see it on the digital electronics. Has anyone experienced this? Are these analog gauges hard to come bye? Any recommendations as to finding a new one?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Dan

First test the circuit with a VOM to see if the meter on the dashboard is faulty or the circuit is at fault before you start looking

And if all the above checks out you can send the gauge to the Lauderdale Speed Shop, they repaired several of my gauges. Just recently both tachs were acting funny, port wouldn’t even work. Both came back like brand new.
