    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Voltage Issue

    The voltage on my 01 keeps dropping. It runs for about 5 minutes at around 12 volts then drops down to 8. Both batteries tested good and so did the alternator. The truck continues to run. What else should I look for?

    My 01 RAM has the original transmission with almost 300k miles on it. It has a long delay before shifting gears.
