Running a 60 Series, twin batteries - 1 x crank and 1x fridge only (50 L Trailblaza)
Digital voltage readouts on both batteries - within 0.1V of multimeter on either battery comparo dig readout.
Digital sets off alarm at 15.5 (+/- 0.2 V)
Is Alternator problem or Voltage regulator - intermittent and call into lecky - no problem - bluudy Murphy.
Advice please.

Is it overcharging the batteries, ie is one of them getting over cooked, if it is the Alternator ...if it's like the 75 series wiring it should have a white wire coming from the plug at the rear of the alternator, closest to the engine block ,Cut it about 120mm back , fit a terminal and fix it to the main live terminal on top of the alternator, tape up the end from the firewall.
THIS WILL ONLY APPLY TO HEAVEY DUTY ALTERNATERS 130AMP.
