    Gen 3 control pack not charging

    Anyone run into this? Had to calibrate for MAF tube, but even stock it wouldn't charge. We were told by another shop they changed something in the calibration and theirs started charging, but can't see anything that would cause it, and changing values under alternator control have so far done nothing.

    You shouldn't need to change anthing in the computer for the alternator to charge.
    I would check your grounds and confirm a good path to the batterys negative from the ground location.
    Also a dedicated wire to the chassis and from that to the engine block.
    A multimeter comes in handy confirming ground paths, and how much resistance the ground path has.

    I see now gen 3 control pack, its a little different,but still seems like a ground issue if its not charging.
