After a pleasant weekend camping in Conn. the battery and O2 lights came on at the kennel where we picked up our noncamping pooch. I had a similar but not identical problem a year or so ago when those same lights flickered dimmly. Now they are on solid. Then it was traced to a bad connection of some wire at the alternator. So I had a look and see that one black wire is hanging free. It comes from a small black plastic thingy (condensor/capacitor?) that is bolted to the edge of the alternator. I can't see where the other end should connect. Can anyone tell me? Is this likely to be the reason the lights are on? Thanks for the advice, Nelson Hogg
