Alternator issues?
Lately i've noticed my alt light glowing abit. Mostly when cruising around 3K.
Here's some voltages I took with my Fluke VOM. idle: 14.5 or so, but 12 with the headlights on 3K: 14.5 or so regardless. So whats up with my alt?? or the light? (it does the usual red light on full at first start until I get it over 1500 or so, then goes out) Any ideas on the best thread to research/read would be appreciated, thanks!

If the brushes inside the alternator are worn out, you can get this symptom.
