Battery problem...
Just recently my check gauges light kept coming on and I was wondering why...then I noticed everything was going slower...even my blinker, windows, everything!!!
My voltage was reading real low. So I charged my battery today at autozone. I put it back in and the voltage meter sits right at the tip of the yellow part....is that normal? If it goes back down, will it be a battery problem or an alt. problem.( If it is an alternator problem...what would cause it to go out so soon!!! only 55k miles on this beast...) THANKS!

Mileage on the car doesn't mean anything. Parts can fail at any time. If you already replaced the battery then the next thing is the alternator. Make sure all your cable and connections are good and tight first.

I didnt replace the battery...I charged it at the autozone... it tested and charged good. So then my voltage is reading low?
Cables are good.
