starboard motor volt meter fluctuates depending on RPMs (higher RPMs, higher volts). Port motor just stays are one voltage the entire time. Any thoughts? Dan |

You should probably start by having the alternator tested. Also check out condition of major wiring components……such as battery cables, etc. |

Actually, I'd start by putting a VOM (volt meter)on the battery as it does this. You should see a steady voltage here. If not, the alternator is acting up. If okay here, look for bad connections going to the gage. Jeff |
