After searching here and other places on the internet (before the FCC makes me route through them) I can't find good information on just what kind of output I have on the alternator on my Holiday Rambler. Its the F53 with the 6.8l V10.

13.5 to 14.5 volt at 1800 rpms. Below 100amp 125 amp and 200 amp.You have to get the numbers off the unit to be sure which unit you have. Not sure what the FCC has to do with it.

That was a side comment about NET neutrality... The FCC I'd not happy with the legal ruling.Buy that is a topic for another thread in the correct forum

Yes, you'll have to look at the alternator itself. Anything could have been put on it or changed if one went bad or if someone wanted more output. The MH builder could have changed it after the chassis left the factory also.Bill

I've had the doghouse off many times. Doesn't look easy to get to the front of the engine to view this. Am I missing another way to get to it?

130 amp, like all F53s of that era.Richard
