Pulled codes at Advance auto and oriellys first thing . got p0336 ??? been few months. alt. pin # ?? and possible ecm. thought maybe aftermarket alt. prob after changing 2 times. Then went got oem from ford. battery light comes on after about 10 secs and stays on all the time. Drive car daily no problems , nite no prob. a/c and lights no prob. 14.25 volts at alt. and battery. code checker at advance and oriellys says no prob.
