What Voltage Is Too High For Car Battery. And the voltage indicator drew my attention almost immediately because it would be all over the place the highest I saw it was 142V which AFAIK is too high but then I also saw it read 128V which is too low for charging. Therefore a voltage appears that is higher than usual.

The same is true when measuring battery voltage to determine if a battery has gone bad. 123v is the voltage of the battery that alternator isnt getting ANYTHING to the battery if thats what its showing while the car is running. A fully charged car battery voltage should be 126v or above this is with the engine off.
