hey guys,
So about an hour ago while i was driving back from Crabby Joes after their amazing Tuesday 39c wings, my battery light came on. Obv got pretty scared and barely stopped anywhere omw home, let alone turning off the car in between. So once i got home, i went into the odometer 'test' mode, and checked the battery Voltage...it was consistently around 12, tried revving it, and at about 3k rpm the voltage went up to 13v. Also, I did notice was a change in idle speed; it was idling at about 500-600 at times and around 1000 sometimes, when normally mine idles around 750. So I don't know if my alternators fried or whats going on...
Has anybody experience something similar...is it God's calling of the alternator to rest in peace, or the battery is dying...or something more?
