Ok new member although I have read more posts than I can count before joining. A few weeks ago my 97 SE started having the "check gauges" light illuminate in all its bjg scary redness and the voltage gauge would bottom out to nothing. Soon after, probably within a mile it would pop back up and go away. Then it did it again but didnt go away so I parked it and assuming it was the alternator took the alternator to get tested...but it tested fine. So then I thought ok maybe its the voltage regulator in the ECU and I wired in an external voltage regulator to bypass it from a late 80s dodge(brand new but for those) then it proceeded to jump between about 13.7 volts at normal to 19 volts sporadically while driving. What the heck is going on with this poor thing? I have again removed the alternator and battery and am getting them both tested today at at least 2 locations for each. If they are both good im not sure what I should do next.
