text: A good way to test this is using a DVOM to check the battery voltage as the engine is running if there is greater than 14 volts at idle you have a stuck regulator if 14 volts or less at idle raise engine speed to approximately 2000 revolutions per minute, the voltage should increase up to 15 volts not neccessarilly 15 volts but a maximum of 15 volts, any more than that and the alternator is far exceeding the charge limits that the battery can handle.
