Replaced the alternator Sunday - was only getting 12ish Vdc. Replaced it, and putting out 13.8 ish. Was gonna get the old one tested (spare Jeep alternator) died as I backed in. Anyone ever have these issues? If so, did you do the external VR replacement or new ECU?
 
I guess I don’t understand your post. The new alternator failed? What brand?
