Amp gauge reading 25 amps charging
My amp gauge in my 69 Z reads a 25 amp charge while going down the road. I have checked the voltage regulator and it is regulating a 14.7 volt charge to the battery. I have checked the junction box on the radiator support and the leads are clean. My horn relay works for the horn but not for the key buzzer. Not sure if there is a malfunction in the HR that would cause an over charge on the red wire? This situation also causes my temp gauge to read high. I have checked the temp while the car is warm and the temp is 165 -170* with a 180* thermostat installed. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this over charge reading?
