Voltmeter is bouncing below and above the normal range and head lights dim and brighten accordingly. I just changed the battery two-weeks ago. What should I check/replace next to avoid getting stranded, alternator, fuse, voltage regulator (if any)?
All ideas are welcome…
 
Check all your wires.... including what Pin_Head mention. Make sure you have good grounds as well.
 
Check the alternator??? I've had a bad alternator take out the batery, replaced the battery, then killed it again.. to find out it was the alternator.. Luckily battery was replaced unde warranty! :)
Should be an easy check at the local parts storte they can usually test your alternator in a couple of minutes for free without taking it off!
