Yes, and internal diodes convert it into dc.
dc
To help produce voltage.
13.5 to 15.5 volts.
it will not produce voltage or high enough voltage when running should be around 14 volts running
It should produce 14.5v +/- and it's DC.
The s10 uses an alternator and regulator to produce voltage. A high voltage is most likely caused by a faulty voltage regulator.
No. The alternator has to be turning to produce the charging voltage. It only turns when the engine is running.
Voltage flows from the alternator not to it. If it is outputting no voltage it is defective.
I/C Regulator built inside alternator.
I/C regulator built inside alternator.
Output of the alternator is controlled by the voltage regulator.
