Re: battery light

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I went up to autozone today and tested it with their volt meter and it read 12 and didnt seem to be charging. i think first i will go ahead and get new battery jsut in case its that simple. The alt i got has lifetime warranty. I probably will be taking it to the shop this week regardless seeing I have an oil leak somewhere and cant seem to pin point where its coming from.

I politely said sir its a 2.5 Mazda v6 to which he responded Ford is known to do weird things. I thought to myself yeeeeah right like using a TPS sensor from a 1.9 honda .I then came to my senses and went to Murrays and was in and out within 5 minutes with the correct part. [/Rant]

I am having a similar problem to this i notice while i am driving down the road that the battery dummy light flashes at me. Could this be a bad coil in the coil pack? It does not flash to the base lines of the music i am listening to either i do have a system 500watt amp pushing an 800 watt boss sub and simulated HID's.
now u sir please start ur own thread and do not hijack please with ur crazy rants.

not sure why you would think the coil pack would cause the battery light to flash. I mean at least I havent heard of that so i could be wrong. If ur battery light is flickering I would say to be prepared to replace an alt or battery.
