I think it was at the point I missed a tbone accident by 15 seconds tonight I realize I should of let my car get hit!
Sorry for the rant.
Coming home from a random cruise tonight in my '99 SE, I missed a collision by less than 15 seconds, involving some jackball in a newer VW Jetta and a POS mazda sedan.
Less than a mile from home, the batt light comes on steady-flickering-steady-off-flickering, at less than 35 mph. Dash lights are starting to go.
I shut down my stereo, just a single amp, one sub, nothing pulling alot of power.
headlights still bright however.
Been having issues of high rpm flickering of the battery light, and I noticed the main wire harness looks fried.
Going to test the battery voltage in a short while, and the running voltage.
Battery is a motorcraft piece, 3-4 years old.
104k on the car, as far as I know, OEM alt.
I bought my car at 39k.
Have not touched the engine, anytime it needed something it was under warranty.
I have a trip next weekend, and this could not have happened at a worse time.
