voltage indications

I have a 95 park avenue ultra.... if I turn my ignition key on, but not to start engine, with all accessories OFF ( ac/heater, lights, radio, etc)
what should the voltage guage indicate?.. mine is indicating about 9 volts, until I start the engine. Is that normal?

I have the same car as you, and mine says somewhere around 11 volts, according to the gage.

yes it's normal.. It depends on gauge calibration.. But your in good shape.. If you start the car and your above 13V then your ok to go!
