thanks for the response--new alternators, not rebuilt, x 2-have done the the volt drop test to the ecm, OK. talked with the LR dealer in Chattanooga, they seem to think, with out looking at it, that I just have gotten bum alternators. I am just having a hard time getting my mind around 2 bad alternators in a row - Before I go for another(2 year coverage for replacement). So here is what happens---driving along and the Tach drops to nothing-volt meter goes from around 13.9 to 12.2 with no load--11.2 with AC or lights on. This last about 2-3 min than jumps back to normal. So the Alt is cutting out and this is happining more. The alt light never comes on. Love my Disco but can't let the wife drive it untill I figure this out-do not want it to let her down.
Thanks for the input-
greater minds than mine
