Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

1 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

I have a 2007 Cayman Base I Recently Put A 4" Crank Pully From Pelican Parts On It And As Soon As I Started The Car My Alternator Started Charging To Just 12 Volts. I Ordered A New Alternator Online And The New One Was Worse Than The Original One So I Sent That One Back And Ordered A Bosche Voltage Regulator From Pelican Parts. I Checked The Main + Wire Harness With A Multimeter And The Ground And They Both Check Out Fine. The Regulator Arrived Today And I Am Going To Install It Tonight But If I Does The Same Thing Not Sure What To Do Next. Has Anyone Had Any Charging Issues After Installing A Smaller Crank Pulley On Their Cars. Wondering If My Issue Might Be Related To It Since It Started Literally Right After I Installed It. I Have Been Searching And Havent Found Anything Online About It Causing Any Issues At All Tho. Oh I Noticed The Alternator Issue Because All Of My Dash Lights All The Sudden Started Lighting Up And Then Everything Would Go Dead Repeatedly Then Come Back On And Then Off Again.
