DASH LIGHTS ALL ON? ALTERNATOR ON WAY OUT?

Post by LJ70kid »

Hi all,

Recently the t-belt, turbo, filter and battery light in my LJ71 have come on and stayed on after start up...

I have checked alternator belts : seem in good cond, are suffiently tight
Battery is still charging: but not as high as normal

Suggestions?

Yes definitely sounds like it or if your truck has an external regulator it could just be that
Pop into any auto electrician and they should check your charging for free. If in doubt

Haven't you already asked this in another topic??

Similar on my 80 series, was just the alt brushes, fitted new ones and it was all good
