Re: No Alternator Light 200 1984

Hi Steve,

I'm not by any means an expert in the matter but I kinda doubt that the system will not charge if a light (on the dash?) doesn't go on. What I personally would do is use a voltmeter to check the drop across the battery to see if its dropping or not, if its dropping noticable then the charging system probably isn't working. If you are around ~13 for the potentual difference then I wouldn't worry about it. Do you have a battery gauge in the car?

Will
