Re: [ST] dead batt/engine light
OK, three heating cycles it'll be, but thinking back on recent rides at
night and pulling up to a stop light, I remember the lights dimming very
slightly and I can see a dim to bright flickering in the speedo with the
engines idle. I checked the alternator and if my old eyes are seeing my
cheap, hard to read analog voltmeter right it is only charging at 12-13
volt range which is low, right? So if the alternator is not charging
properly can it be repaired without buying a new one? I get very
paranoid over things like this, but at least it happened in the garage
and not out in the middle of no where. I never have the parking light
so that would be out.
