So my alternator died, and I replaced the battery and the alternator. All is well. I've measured the voltage at the battery and its hovering around 13.7 volts and I've had my car running for about a half hour (with headlights, radio, rear defroster on, etc), and the voltage is still hovering at 13.7. When I rev the engine, the voltage stays around 13.7 still.
So my main problem is....
When my car died the other day, my DSC, BRAKE, and ABS lights all come on. After replacing everything, those lights are still all on.
So what is causing this? Is it a faulty alternator? Should the voltage raise when I rev the engine? Does it take a bit of time/miles for those dash lights to turn off?
I have the 49-DL battery from autozone, and I have a brand new Bosch 120 amp alternator with the new voltage regulator on it.
Any one know what could be happening?
