Re: Flashing alternator light

I had an 89 Honda do the same. The 14V sometimes, 0v the next. Turns out to
be worn slip ring. This alternater I talking about has clocked 250K mi on
it. I resurfaced the slip ring and changed brushes but it's not giving me
14V. It's time for me to get a new one.

If you suspect a belt slip, use belt anti slip formula. This is easier done
than said.
