Curious about voltage
Before I start looking for my SRS problem I wanted to check first that my alternator was making enough voltage. With the high beams on and at idle I am reading 14 volts at the battery. Is this a high reading? I was expecting about 13.25 volts. If high what would be the best thing to check?

Thank you MYWAY! That helps. So I don't have low or high voltage now I can start looking for the cause of my constant SRS lamp. I pulled the codes and it was pointing to RH Seat buckle, AIR bag and low voltage circuit 15. I will check under the passenger seat for the buckle connection clean it up and reseat it with fingers crossed. PO replaced the interior he may have not connected this or it could be loose. I am hoping. Thanks again!
