Voltage drop

Post by c0n13oX »

Hi all.

Whenever i turn my air con on, i get a voltage drop on the voltmeter to about 11V and the engine/exhaust noise changes dramatically. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Ohh, ok then it may not be normal lol
The revs change due to the aircon compressor kicking in to run it it think.
