My alternator light is on bright all the time.
The only time it changes is when it is at idle, it flickers dim. As soon as i give it some gas it goes bright. I have changed the VR but it still does the same thing. The volt gauge is reading about 12v and moves up slightly when i give it gas.Belt is tight. I have read the tech article on PP but not sure what to do. Any thoughts or suggestions? |
