"Check gauge" light is on
Howdy, I have a 2001 dodge ram 1500. Today
while driving the "check gauge" light came on and
at the same time my battery needle flew full to the
right. After about 5 miles the light went off and
battery needle went back to normal. I checked
battery cables and connections, as far as I can see
all looks good. Ant ideas or helpful hints are
seriously welcome. Thanks all !!!

Thank you for responding, thay was my fear, for it to blow, I have been having alot of hard start problems, sometimes when I turn it over it shuts down like the battery died and then starts up. Radio stations have to be reprogrammed etc. Crap, looks like more money into this old truck. Thank you again !!!!

Jim, Thanks again, you have been very helpful, looks like the alternator, take good care.I'll let you know the out come....ug!!÷!
Hi jim, well I checked everything, nothing looked loose or frayed, I wiggled some wires and tightened the battery cables, so far so good, gauge light has not come on again. Could it be the weather? It has reached freezing Temps when all this started. Really trying to avoid the mechanic.
