Re: Output voltage unable to get above 90 V AC on battery...
With the car voltage at 13.8V and you have less then a 400 Watt load the inverter is probably bad. The output voltage is not adjustable by the user. Good Luck, Gil

This information expands upon the error code information contained in the Link 2000 Owner?s Manual.
E-01 Inverter high DC/Battery voltage shutdown Battery voltage has risen above 15.5 VDC for 12-volt models or 31 VDC for 24-volt models.
E-02 Inverter low DC/Battery voltage shutdown Battery voltage has dropped below 10 VDC for 12-volt units or 20 VDC for 24-volt units.
E-03 Inverter or Charger overtemp shutdown Unit will reset automatically after it has cooled sufficiently.
E-04 Battery overload Caused by excessively discharged batteries. See section in inverter owner?s manual titled ?Charging overdischarged batteries.?
E-05 AC Backfeed AC power from an outside source has been fed to the AC output of the inverter. Potentially damaging to the unit. Disconnect incoming AC power and correct the situation.
E-06 Electronic Overload Inverter overload caused by too large a load or a short circuit. Reset by cycling power switch or connecting incoming AC power.
E-07 Triac control error Triac has overheated. Shut down unit and allow to cool.
E-08 High battery voltage shutdown during charge mode Check all charging sources for proper voltage. Reset by cycling the power switch.

Not sure but I believe the GMC Yukon has an in line fuse in the charging line. If so the output of the alternator will not get to the battery. One way to check is to measure the voltage, when the engine is running. At above idle it should be over 13 volts. Then measure the battery voltage, it should be almost the same within 200 to 400 mVolts. If not the charging line is open. Also if the alternator charging terminal is the same as the battery (12 to 12.7V) while the engine is running, that again indicates the alternator internal regulator is bad. If you turn on the headlights with the engine running above idle and the alternator output drops over a volt or so, the alternator is bad. This measurement can be taken at the battery plus terminal or the alternator charging output.
not knowing how or who installed the radio you could try the following Is the radio 12volt ??, if so is it wired to one battery or running through a voltage reducer ?? if wired to one battery ( this is not advised as it should be wired through a voltage reducer) is the battery ok (load test battery) If wired through a voltage reducer simulate driving then measure output voltage,, voltage should be equivalent to or slightly above accessory input voltage
re: Acculab V-200 Digital Scale The original AC acpater is rated at 12VDC 300mA output. It is unregulated (i.e. the output voltage is about 16-17V with no load) The centre pin is NEGATIVE, which is the opposite of "most" AC adapters. (Acculab model number is 41-12-300D, for the 120V 60Hz version)
does it have a led display for battery charge? if it is very low battery is bad,when you add a/c no output because bad battery will not provide a/c in power failure
With the battery fully charged, use a DVOM (digital volt ohm meter) to check the output of the charging system. Connect it across the battery, red meter lead to positive, black meter lead to negative. Put the meter's function switch in DC VOLTS, 20 VOLT range. Start the engine and bring it to a high idle of about 1500-2000 RPM. The meter should read 14.5 to 15.0 volts.
If the meter does not read correctly, unplug the regulator where it enters the front of the engine case. You'll be measuring the AC voltage at the engine case side of the plug. Put your meter's function switch in AC VOLTS, 50 VOLT range. Put one meter lead into one metal contact in the plug and the other lead into the other metal contact in the plug. Makes no difference which lead goes to which metal contact. Start the engine and bring it to a high idle. You should read 30 volts or better.
If you do not read 30 volts at the engine, your stator is bad. If you have 30 volts or more at the engine but low voltage at the battery, your regulator is probably bad. This is a simple test and it's accuracy is about 90% or so.
To test the charging system, first you need a fully charged battery in the bike. With a fully charged battery, start the bike. Using a DVOM (digital volt ohm meter) put the red lead of the meter to the positive battery post and the black lead to the negative post. Put the meter in DC volts, 50 volt range. Bring the engine to a high idle and you should read between 14.5 and 15.0 volts at the battery. If you read this much, your charging system is operating as it should. If not, procede to check your alternator output.
If not, look for the connector that connects the alternator to the voltage regulator. Disconnect the connector. Now, going into the connector on the alternator side (the wire that comes from the left side engine case) test the output of the alternator. Put your meter in AC volts, 50 volt range. Notice we're measuring AC voltage now. Put one lead of the meter to each of the pins in the plug. Since it's AC voltage, it make no difference which lead goes where. Now start the engine and bring it to a high idle. You should read somewhere around 25 volts or higher. If you read this much voltage, your stator is good and your regulator may be bad. If not, your rotor is most likely bad.
One reason for a regulator not working correctly is lose of a good ground. Take the regulator off the frame and put a "star washer" (serated lock washer) between the regulator and the frame and tighten the mounting bolts. This will restore the ground on the regulator. If this doesn't help, the regulator is probably bad.
