The voltage regulator controls the alternator's output to maintain a stable 13.5-14.5V charge to the battery and electrical system. A faulty regulator causes overcharging (which damages the battery and electronics) or undercharging (which drains the battery). On many modern vehicles, the regulator is built into the alternator.
Voltage regulator problems affect the entire electrical system. Both overcharging and undercharging cause distinct symptoms.
Test the charging voltage at the battery terminals with the engine running. A reading outside 13.5-14.5V indicates a regulator or alternator fault.
