I still need to remove the alt. when I do the timing belt job, but does
this trigger anything for anyone. very odd.
Sounds like my Rabbit when the B+ wire, where it connects to the battery,
was corroded. I didn't have a bright red light at idle but it was visible
in the evening or dark. Either had to clean the terminal or put on a new
one and it worked perfectly. Use your volt meter, set it to a low voltage
setting and check for "voltage drop" across any connections you can
(ground, battery, battery to B+ post, etc). See if you find one that gives you
some voltage, indicating its going through your meter better than the
connection.
