Do I need a alternator?

Postby gsumann » Mon Mar 31, 2014 7:02 am

When I hit the gas all the lights get really bright and the voltage meter goes all the way to 18 at idle it goes back around 12-13 volts and the lights get dim.

In a word, yes.

Mine did the same thing until I replaced it. Killed my battery real quick too.
