1992 Ford Truck Explorer, GEN (Alternator) Waveform
Posted to the Waveform Library on 10/24/2000

This image depicts what was happening as the voltage pulsed up and down while I used my lab scope to do a wave of the diode ripple. Both the battery and alternator had to be replaced to get rid of the pulsing voltage.
