I had this camaro sent to a Chevy dealer to be repaird. They said they replaced the ignition switch. I found out that they replaced the ORANGE wire coming from the ignition to the CCM. That's the orange wire that has 2 wires inside the 1 orange wire.
When the ignition is turned on, battery voltage passes down the wire to the alternator to 'excite' the alternator when the engine starts. When the engine starts and the alternator generates a voltage, the light is extinguised by the charging voltage cancelling out the battery voltage coming down the wire. If and when the alternator completetly fails the the light will come back on as there is no sancelling voltage. if the alternator produces a voltage lower than the voltage from the ignition switch then the battery light will glow.
any short in the electrical system will have an effect on the charging system
The drive belt is not tensioned. The fuse in the line between the battery and alternator is blown. The battery has a bad cell. The voltage to the alternator field is missing from the regulator or ignition switch circuit.
Dead battery, Alternator not charging, Ignition off draw draining battery,.............
It shows that your battery is in workable condition and your alternator is charging as it should.
alternator needs to be replaced. battery also might be a problem due to the alternator not charging it
charging system not charging battery with new batttery, alternator and fuel pump. what will make that happen ?
Is it charging, if not have you checked wiring to alternator.
have the alternator and the battery checked
The alternator is over charging. you need to have the charging sytem checked.
Have the charging system checked. Possibly loose or corroded wiring, a loose alternator belt, or a bad alternator.
Apparently the alternator is bad or the battery is shot, take the car to autozone and get a free charging system check.
