    When I start my baby, I noticed at night that she wasn't recharging because my lights would be really dim. And the ammeter shows a discharge. Then a few minutes later, suddenly, she starts recharging.

    Voltage regulator going bad? Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Manny

    Do you keep it on a battery tender? Does your tender show a voltage on the battery when not being charged or do you have a voltage reading across the battery terminals?

    Hi Rob, I use the car daily so no need for a battery tender. I only have a trickle charger. It just has idiot lights.

    Check the main fuse in the engine compartment on the fire wall first?
