Battery light on....

Postby LSpec » Sat Jan 19, 2008 11:59 pm

I have a problem with my fto.

When the car is running, the battery light in the dash is on, like about 3 months I readjust the tensioner of the alternator belt and the light go off.

now again the light is on, today i changed the belts, but the light is still on.

what can i do?? :?

Im guessing the alternator is on its way out.
I had to change mine after the battery light started to come on. There was no problem with the car, starting the first time, the idle was fine..
Is it always on or is it on when idle and off when accelerating? Mine was like that.
