I recently purchased a used Yamaha F115 outboard originally sold in 2006. When I first got it, it would not charge so I replaced the rectifier/regulator with one advertised as OEM equipment. It now charges, but I routinely see voltages as high 14.5 volts (on both the dash gauge and my multimeter). My first question is what the maximum charging voltage should be, My second question is whether anything other than the rectifier/regulator might account for the high voltage.
