If your batt is sitting at less than 12v its not being charged or is failing. The 3g is an internaly
regulated unit, the regulator is diffrent for the type of car its in. In other words you cant
take a 90amp reg and put it in a 160amp alt and make it work. I learned this the hard way. I have many
regs pulled during cash for clunkers. Not worth a crap.
If the max your making is 12.5, checked at the alt with no loads it may have a failed diod or regulator.
