Volt Gauges

WHEN ARE VOLT GAUGES IMPORTANT?

Volt gauges for trucks are extremely important because they monitor your truck’s charging system, which is what provides an electrical current to your vehicle. Without a charging system, your truck’s battery would run out quickly. The purpose of a volt gauge, also referred to as a voltmeter, is to monitor the functionality of this system and provide an advance warning in the event there’s an issue, so you’ll have a chance to address the issue before your battery runs out. This is in contrast to many trucks which have a built-in warning which alerts only after the charging system has stopped working completely, and it is vital to have a way to monitor your truck’s voltage system when there is heavier electrical use which can be caused by towing heavier loads, running salt spreaders and snow plows, and more. It’s easy to know how to read a voltmeter: Modern vehicles operate on a 12 volt electrical system, and your analog or digital voltmeter will read approximately 12.5 volts when your truck is not running, and 14 volts when in use. Essentially, if your truck consistently runs below 14 volts, or if it runs steadily above 15 volts, you should have it checked. This is where your volt gauge is an extremely practical, effective and easy to use instrument for monitoring your truck’s electrical system.
