HELP
I was coming home tonight and it seems every time I would slow down to take a corner or my car was sitting idling my charge battery light would come on. When I got home I started playing around and the more things I turned on the more the light came on. I bought a brand new battery in March so I don't think it would be that...has anyone had a problem like this.

Re: HELP
my vote is more than likely you have a bad altenator which is causing your car to pull all its power from the battery, when i had my firebird this happen to me a few times, till 4am i got stranded in the middle of no where cause my car had no more power.
You can go up to autozone and they are still testing altenators (reason i say still is i was there today and the guy said in about a month they are nolonger going to be testing them) so hurry hurry
hoped this helped some
