I have noticed recently that my OXS and Battery dash lights both stay on until 2000 rpm is reached in my '85 Westy. Then they both turn off and stay off even at lower rpm until the next time I start back up. It didn't use to do this. Is this a sign of impending doom? I did tighten the alternaor belt which was a bit loose, but it didn't change things. What esle should I check or is this not a problem? I have an auxillary battery that has an isolator wired to the refrigerator relay if that makes a difference. I don't seem to have any electrical problems such as batteries going dead (yet?). Any thoughts anyone? TIA. Roy Mellor Little Rock, AR '85 Westy, "Humbert" |
