Well if it is the alt, I have a voltage regulator with new brushes ready to go in but I have not seen my batt charging light come on at all while driving the car although it does light up and go out as normal upon start up.
I did have an issue with corrosion at my terminals and some starting issues over the past two months. I cleaned the terminals/posts real good with sandpaper and with the foaming cleaner followed by the sealant so they are nice and clean now with no corrosion. I hope its not something silly like the cables but at least now I have a new battery to install and go from there.
I ended up getting a Bosch Premium battery from a local Pep boys. Its a group 47 with 600 CCA. Seems a bit small but it has a 3 year free replacement/roadside warranty and a 96 mo pro rata warranty. Was $180 after core charge
