OK I know i got that other thread going about my battery light, but I think I have some new insight on the problem. I'm probably gonna take it tomorrow to see what's going on so I'll stop bothering you all with it. My last attempt at figuring out the problem: I've noticed that if the car has been sitting like say, a couple of hours, I can go to start it and drive fine, I can get up to pretty high RPMS, but if i go too high, the battery light will come on and the guages will reset. Now, what I've failed to mention is that after I've been driving for about 10-15 minutes, the battery light will go on and the guages will reset at lower RPMs and a lower speed (especially on the highway) before I got home from school, which is about a 30 minute drive, and the guages just would NOT stop resetting and lights flashing, even while I was driving 25mph on a side road with the RPMs at about 1.5 - 2. Also, just before my car was sitting in the driveway for about 3 hours, and i went to rev it, and the light didn't come on till about 4 RPMs. So could this possibly be the battery recharging then discharging when I'm using it?
