Charging Question

[freak]

I drove my Bronco today and the ALT light started coming on at idle,my Auto meter gauge showed less that 12 volts.So I changed the alternator,now the Alt light stay's on all the time and I'm charging 14.24 volt's.My light's are not flickering any more at idle either.What's the deal with the light?

I think thats when you take out the wire cutters.

Which wire goes to the light?

 

[Broncoholics]

If you really want to, get under dash and find the wire going to the red light, cut and tape it off. Its a dummy light and since you have a voltage gauge you should be good to go.

Fixed it.The voltage regulator blew a circuit in it.
