Help me diagnose this gang. The XJ seems to run the battery level gauge at the 12amp (amps?) level lately. Then all of a sudden it will drop to just below 9 (bottom of the gauge) and then the XJ dies a slow death in about 5 min. I jump it with my truck and the battery gauge goes back up to 12 again for a while. Then out of the blue, with no indication of anything changing (no clicks, no pops, no jerks, etc) the guage just falls to 9 again and the red indicator "Check Guages" lights up. Only to have the XJ die a slow death in the next 5 min.
I am inclined to think that this is the lack of a working Alternator in the XJ and not the battery. What do you guys think?
