Need help, 70 GMC not charging
'70 GMC 307 with external voltage regulator and optional gauges in the dash cluster.
Truck quit charging, dies if I remove positive battery terminal It has ran fine for a year and a half. PO replaced alternator within a year of selling truck to me. I had alternator checked at an alternator/starter shop and it tested fine. I replaced EVR. No change. I have no voltage at F terminal of EVR with or without engine running. Amp gauge on dash points straight up (half way between D and C) with or without engine running. If I jump 12v from battery to F terminal on EVR, amp gauge goes to 3/4 Mark (toward C). My research says F terminal should have around 3-4 volts with key on, engine off and 12-14 volts with engine running. I followed blue and Brown wires from alternator to EVR to firewall and did not see any breaks or splices. What could cause no voltage at F terminal? Thanks in advance for your help, Dave
