Sunchaser is sad. Voltage gauge has a red warning light on. Is this my alternator? Battery is less than a year old.

Could be the alternator, could be the voltage regulator, could be the alternator and voltage regulator are bad and killed the battery.

Yup, definitely the alternator. The warning lamp contains an electrochromic filament that changes color in accordance with the source of the failure. Blue light means battery, green light means ground, and red light means alternator.

...I wish.

Did you just make that up?

Yeah, it was just a joke. But now I’m wondering what it would take to make a light that actually does that...

You should seriously find out. Imagine how much that would be worth.

Come to think of it, mullti-color LEDs do exist, and there are those socket testers that can sense a ground problem... (Yeah, that’s for AC power. But still: HMMM...)

Aw crap, I’m gonna be up all night thinking about this, aren’t I?

Hey, you made your bed. Now you can lose sleep in it.

Report in the morning, please.

Sorry man, got distracted by all that Equifax BS. I swear, if you’re not losing sleep over one thing, you’re losing it over another...

That’s okay. You can have an extension on this assignment.

I haven’t been worried about the equifax stuff, but I’m starting to think I should be.
