I have a stock, working, mm volt gauge that would be a direct, 5 minute replacement for $30 shipped if you want it.

the problem with my gauge never ever cross 13 or almost 13 .. when i start the headlight and the a/c go down to 12 and sometimes below 12
when i check the charging system by battery tester or sct x3 tell me the charging around 13.50 to 14
so if i change the gauge how much will tell me the volt will be .. ?

It's possible that it is charging @ 14 volts, but not the correct amps, I have run into this quite a few times, and it only shows up under load, it is sounding like you need an alternator based on your description.

I already changed mine before three months btw its remanufactured the lights and headlight be more strong after I change it
So any advice ... ??

Hmmmm... Interesting. Let me know if you do want the gauge, it's a good deal for a working, stock, MM gauge and did go up to 14. I made note of where voltage was at all times because I had UD pulleys on the previous engine.
