pdf: http://www.motor.com/magazine/pdfs/042010_09.pdf

motor magazine, April 2010 by dave hobbs, "Are you smarter than a 'smart' charging system?"

explains the history of GM CS series alternators and how the voltage regulators work regarding the PLFS terminal that plugs in and how to diagnose a bad alternator. Also talks about regulated voltage control (RCV) and load shedding.
