Hi:
While driving alon the highway the other day, I ran over some uneven pavement and the resulting jolt caused my speed control to stop working and 6 warning lights on the dash to be lighted.
Since then I took my car to have it scanned and was told that the alternator was not working. I took a reading across the battery posts while the car was ideling and sure enough it read only 12.27 volts.
The question is:how do I track down the problem since this only occured when I had struck a bump and the car only has 64,000 miles on it, I think that it may be a bad connection or wire may be broken.
TIA.
