4.3 to 5.3 swap but now cant get alternator to charge HELP!
Ok, first off I am new to this site but love what I have read so far! My problem is I swaped my 2001 4.3l silverado engine out for a 5.3l from a 2000 silverado. The swap went well, The truck starts and runs fine except for one issue, the alternator will not charge the system. Put on a new alt. and still no luck, Ohmed the brown wire from the alt. back to the pcm pin(#15) And the wire checks out to be good(100% saturation), also used a ground light at both ends of the fuse link and have current at each end. The messege center displays the red battery icon that comes on and goes will the truck is runnig. Completely lost on what to check next, Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
