[QUOTE="Hintzyboy, post: 3139167, member: 566521"] Hey guys. I was driving down the road Sunday night, and an indicator light comes on saying something is messed up with my charging system. My voltage dropped from ~14 volts to ~12 volts. For about 25 miles, it held a steady 12 volt reading, but then it dropped to 9/10 volts as I was driving home last night. Do you guys think it's my alternator, or is it something else? Maybe a voltage regulator? Is there any way I can check this without pulling a bunch of parts out of the engine bay? Please respond if you have any idea what's going on. I need to get this fixed ASAP. Thanks guys, Aaron [/QUOTE]
