Hey guys..just wondering if any of you guys ever experience this before...Got the pedal to the floor..hit 3rd gear and get up to about 4000 and see your Battery light, and E-brake light flicker. I have a Voltage gauge and its wierd...Voltage drops from 14 volts to about 11-12volts. Thinking it might be a problem with my alternator. Anybody else have this happen to them?

Time for a new alternator.

my Nx did that for a little bit and stopped. I agree it might be the alternator.
The brake light always seems to go on along with the volt light.
Was it snowy/slushy out? Mine did the same thing and it might have been a wet belt or something, because after it dried out it stopped.

I had the same thing and it was the alternator.

Just happened to me last week, rounding a corner in the rain. Checked for shorts, but alas, it was the alternator. A word of warning...I had my '96 alternator rebuilt last March and it died last week. I went ahead and splurged and bought a brand new one for $320, since I knew I wasn't going to sell the car with in the next two years. Just food for thought, ya' know cost/benefit analysis junk and all.

My two cents,
