Now that it's dark enough out in the morning, I have noticed that my battery light is slightly glowing. This morning, it was glowing faintly, but coming on a bit more as the wipers went on and off. The voltmeter is showing about 12.5 while driving...
Now, since I'm running LED park lights, head lights, and bumper lights, and since I only drive 6 miles each way on my commute, I can make this last a while by putting the battery on a charger every night. However, I still have not figured out what is going on with the voltage drop to the starter, so I'm already push starting or hot wiring every other start cycle. This is an annoyance on what is already annoying.
So before I pull the alternator and get it rebuilt, (it only has 14k on it) is there anything I should look into as possible causes here, other than the alternator itself?
