So what's the deal?

Ever since I've had my car the charge light will not go out. I'm getting 14.4 volts at the battery, everything seems to work properly but the damn light stays on.

I have heard about 5 different opinions like, change the bulb with a different wattage, put a resistor in the circuit, etc.

So how do you conversion guys go about dealing with the charging system?

Mine does exactly the same thing. It is driving me batty...

I put a DVOM on the battery and monitored it for 2 weeks of driving. The alternator is working fine.

But that damned red light just stays there, mocking me... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Its gotta be the bulb. I am going to get an alternator light bulb from a 911....
