well ok.. my battery light flickers on betweent 3k and 4500 and its not bad during the day my volt guage says 14 volts.. but at night if im on the freeway it shows 12 volts and sometimes if i let off the gas it shows 11.5 volts and the battery light will be on...

so far.. ive replaced the battery and had it tested numerous times with the car running and off... at first they said it was the battery cables cuz they were both loose as ****.. so i fixed that..

but every test they say the alternator is testing good... anyone have any ideas thanks for any and all help it gets annoying at night with that damn light on all the time

yo check the alternator for loose wires...at that rpm something may be rattling out and the night problem is because the lights are on...also check your engine ground wire-- good luck
