Started the Rodeo up earlier today, and it started roughly. The following dashboard indicators came on: fuel, battery, brake. Battery does not appear to be charging (ammeter running below the mid line). The only two thoughts I have are a bad alternator or blown charging relay.

I drove the vehicle home from work (approx. 10 miles) with no problems; vehicle sounds the same.

Any ideas? Are the specific dashboard lights indicative of anything in particular?

Thanks in advance...

Rick

 

Alternator! I had the same issues. Replace it before it goes.
