I hate to go to the mechanic to find out it was a little detail and pay at least 80 dollars ! I am trying to avoid it ! LOL.
The alternator readings might be due to the idle problem itself, lower RPM's lower output from the alternator. Suggestions:
- DIY KOEO/KOER self tests
- Base Idle Reset Procedure
