I feel like my alternator is going to shet. I replaced the battery 3 months ago, had some issues with the POS Bose radio system but had it fixed.

Now when the headlights turn on the dashlights dim drastically. I'm thinking its got to be the alternator since the battery is new. I know the lights will dim some whenever the headlights come on but it just seems like its fading too much.

What do y'all think?

Thanks!

 

Not to insult your intelligence but have you checked the instrument dimmer wheel. It should be right next to the trunk release, maybe you hit it accidentally.

 

seriously..

HAHA!

 

thats what i was going to say...

 

No, hence the name and the Jester smiley.

It's all good Newboi, we were all n00bs to the G at one time.

 

Now, if only ALL problems we encountered this easy life would be grand

 

 

So true

 

I've done this before too.

And the minute it happened I was thinking "I hope its not too expensive to fix this issue"

Luckily it wasn't

 

I have done this also while cleaning the dash. I thought something was seriously wrong with the car.

 

i bet you made this face
