I think Max is trying to tell me something important...

Alrighty then, i,m on my way home from work about ten minutes ago, after filling up w/ Supreme (93 Octane) Chrevron gas. just a normal 6.2 mile drive home right? I get 2 blocks away from my house on the main road and my break light and battery light begin to flash simultaneously, but in random order. Max didn't seem... to lose any power but, freaked me out none the less. A LOT of people depend on this car everyday so if anyone has any insight on what this problem may be PLEASE HELP....

He's right. And YOU'RE the **** for wasting everyone's time when you're quite capable of helping yourself.

On the other hand, I did learn something through this thread, even though my alternator's fine.

OP: glad you figured it out.

Well thanx, for the help everyone, I wasn't trying to bee an a** I was just startled when the code came up, and the fact that I just replaced my starter and Alternator in December just sorta p****d me off...So everyone please point and laugh at the newb for an honest mistake...(ha ha)...Didn't mean to waste anyones time, just, p****d is all...


Btw: it wasn't he Alternator at all, the belt tensioner broke,somewhere... But thanx for the help and the blast...

ThreePointO- My bad dude, Usually people can take a joke on the org....Especially after a thank you, jk, and an lol but no need to rant it's done now...hope you accept my apology...
