I do not believe so this should be ok. Normally alternator puts out more than 12 volts. When it is less than 12 is when it is going out.

2007 Toyota Camry wiring diagram please. Wiring for toyoto camry 2.4 2007

Question edited for correct order and spelling.
Question moved to Toyota Camry.

In the link, more in the images. With wiring, it is better so specify an area like 'ignition', or 'rear lights' in search. The other alternative is to get a workshop manual.

I have a 99 solara se. I have new battery and alternator but the car can't carry a load. Ac lights heater radio so forth

Not sure I follow your problem.
The alternator puts out 13-14 volts at idle but very few amps. If you turn on the headlights at idle the voltage may drop to 12 until you raise engine speed. The amperage goes up with engine speed.
Is the battery voltage at least 14 when the engine speed is 1500RPM or more ?

Need to test alternator in a 2008 camry

Hi.

Get a multimeter and read Volts across the two battery terminals.

With engine off it should read about 12.5, by turning on the engine and revving i up a bit it should read about 13.5/14 Volts. If voltage remains unchanged, then the alternator is not working.

How many volts should my alternator be charging at

A fully charged battery has about 12.6 volts but the battery voltage will increase to a point that is usually between 13 to 15 volts when the engine is running with a properly operating alternator. I find most charging systems seem to hold the voltage in that 14 to 14.6 volt range depending on how many electrical devices such as a/c, headlights, etc.are on at the time which can pull the voltage down a bit.

87 toyota camry new battery wont keep charge, alternator checks okay, in dash bulb for charge and brake and lights stays illuminated?

Generally if charge light is on, alternator has a bad diode in it. This lets the charged battery lose its power by flowing in the reverse direction. It sounds as the alt., is either not connected right or is swtill bad

Alternator

The averge volts that your alternator should put out 11 to 13 volts. Under a load it is going to be about 11. At normal idle it should be around 13.
