Voltage gauge reading 9v

Hi, have a question regarding an issue where my voltage gauge will drop to 9v and set off the check gauges light. I have confirmed that the gauge is reading fairly close to what the incoming charge to the battery is. I have been able to correct the issue by shutting off the engine and restarting . I have also while checking things with a meter and seeing only 10 volts incoming to the battery crawled underneath and lightly tapped the field connector block on the alternator and you could hear the alternator load up and start charging to 13.5v . The alternator was tested by the local Autozone and shows it is charging at 14.6 volts. I have gone over most of the wiring and it seems fine , not sure as where to look next for an answer.
