Yeah wild horses found out about that flex belt and lost a few hours trying to sort out how to get it off and on. He even posted the link to the $25 napa tool you need.So keeping you guys in the loop with my updates from the big boss at DC Power. He has been working on things and is currently in the electrical testing phase. This is monumentally groundbreaking for us to say the least. I’m sure he is following this thread as well as checking out a lot of the documented cases with the factory units failures. Something I learned from him today was also that our alternators have not tensioners on them they use a flex belt from when he was explaining. Some times I notice on my rig the major fluctuation in alternator voltage reading which I don’t really trust wholeheartedly. Ranging from 12.5v to spiking up to 15.8v sometimes. Possibly due to the fact the bronco is on a stretch belt possibly creating slippage. I’m truly excited to see fruition come about on this alternator upgrade that we all need!
An alternative alternator that can handle going off road may be our only hope.
