Hey all! I checked the alternator, and it's output is 14.6 volts. I heard from a member of another forum that when an alternator is working properly, its output should be at least 14.00 volts. So, it's not the aternator, what is it? I've already pulled out the fuses that I thought weren't "vital" to the basic opperation of my Mustang. It is still draining. Should I go ahead and pull the rest of the "semi-vital" fuses: headlights, wipers, ect.? Any ideas or suggestions will help!

have you connected an Amp meter to the neg battery cable and checked for a draw yet?? as i stated to do in your other post.

if you don't have an induction probe you'll need to disconnect the battery neg cable and connect the amp meter between the Neg battery terminal and Neg battery cable.
