Ok i have never replaced the alternator on my jeep and i assume its Original! ( 185,xxx ). I have a little system and would notice always that at a stoplight at night ( Or day with rear defroster ) the amp gauge would go from like 14 to 12 at idle when systems bumping. once you take off it would go back to normal. My Alternator always has had somewhat of a load wine to it. Tonight is the first time i have noticed this but when i started up my Cherokee it took like 30 seconds for it to go from 12-13 to 14 volts. Just like after 30 seconds it cut on. when i left the store it did the same thing, is it safe to say that my alternator is on its way out?. Also its like the 90 amp one. advance autos are 117 amps is that ok with out upgrading the wiring?
Thanks
