Hi.
Had a dead battery on my Kubota 8540. Figuring it was the battery, so I took it out and had it tested. Came back good, so I checked the voltage coming from the alternator and I only have 11 when the tractor is at idle. At 2000 rpm I get 13 volt. The shop that tested the battery said I should be getting 14.5 volts even at idle. That being said, anything else to look at before I just go and get another alternator?
Thanks-
