sounds like your alternator is going fast. 12.25...is borderline.
for the brake light..check your brake fluid. if it's low top off...then find out WHY it's low.

: Hey guys what up? this is the current problem..My starter cable was loose, so the car would only turn over and not start. So I tighteb the nut..Problem solved..Now on the dashboard the battery and the brake light are on...The last time I had this happen it was the alternator. I just went to autozone, it checks out at about 12.25 volts, the battery also seems to be in the same range. I dont think my kicker amp has anything to do with it nor the accessories that I a have on..Any suggestions?

- Brake light on dash could be due to low fluid level in the reservoir. A lot of times low brake fluid level is due to brake pads wearing down nm. G3Max (92 SE Auto & 92 SE 5 Speed) 16:15:54 6/29/2002 (0)
- Borderline, at 12.25v that alt is dead. That's less v than a fully charged battery n/m MIKE (93VE) 13:38:16 6/29/2002 (0)
