| Description of the problem | I have had to replace 3 alternators throughout the past 2 months due to a electric problem. My battery light became illuminated each time i was on the expressway going around 70 mph. The battery light indicator tells me my battery is not properly charging due to my alternator. This leads to it having a problem with the computer in my car as i was told by my mechanic and that the problem with keep happening until i get another computer which costs a good amount to have replaced or fixed. |
