I have a 2000 XJ 6.0 4wd. Lately, after driving for 5 minutes or so, the volt meter will jump to 19 volts and the gauges will jump all around, including the speedometer. The "check gauges" light will come on and my AC fan will "pulse" faster when the gauges jump around.
Is this the voltage regulator? Is it inside the alternator or outside? Also, my auto tranny will, occasionally, not downshift at all unless I do it manually. This started happening at the same time as the gauges freaking out. Could this all be due to a faulty computer?
