My XJ is a 2000 4X4 stock 4.0L. When I start the engine when it is cold and then turn on the heater and the headlights the voltage gauge drops to about 10 volts and I get a squeak that sounds like a belt squeaking. If I turn them off the noise stops and the voltage goes back up. Turn them back on then the noise comes back and the voltage drops.
It does this until the engine warns up a little bit. A friend told me that the brushes in the alternator might be bad, but that doesnt sound right to me. Any suggestions would be helpful.
