I have a 72' Dodge, and occasionally while night driving, the
dash lights get very bright and the alternator meter almost
pegs itself to +40. I don't know what the scale is, but it ranges from
-40 to the left, a middle position, and then +40 to the right. Normally
the needle is in the middle position. Does this indicate a faulty
alternator, a faulty voltage regulator, or what? It only happens during
the night with the lights on.
