Can someone help? I need to drive my dart tomorrow

Ok guys a little information here. First thing i did today was check my battery voltage. 13.2 volts with the key off. 12.6 with the key on. Starting, it dropped to about 12 then right back up to 13.5 to 14 at idle. If I rev it it will get up to 17 volts. Sustaining a higher rpm it will keep the voltage over 15 volts. I believe on the highway yesterday I was probably around 17 volts


I took off all connections to alternator and regulator and battery. I cleaned everything and re attached. Same problem. Still over charging.

I removed both wires from the alternator. Did a continuity test on each post, the top post closest to the good did not make a noise when touching a ground point. The bottom connection for the green wire did show continuity however. I’m not sure what this means if anything

At this point I’m wondering if the voltage regulator should have been swapped once the car got electronic ignition? This is something that I read about

What are your thoughts at this point? I always tried another battery and the results were the same. When I remove just the green wire from the ALT, the battery does not charge anymore
