2ES-Battery warning but still fully charged?
So today it came on while I was driving, well, it was more like flashing on and off. So, knowing me, I started freaking out on the way home thinking that it would die on me (which has happened to me in the past in another car ) but I get home fine luckily.
Now, I checked the voltage with those Ohmmeter's and it checked out at 12.65 volts. I'm honestly confused at what is happening now since everything checked out for the battery for what I could see. I even fired up both HID setup's that I had on the car no problem
Any idea what caused this? If it helps your answer, I have HID lows and fogs that use a relay harness to the battery. Those are fine too

i second that the alternator is bad.
12-13.7VDC is pretty low for when the car is operating. if u dont want to replace the whole alternator you can always buy the voltage regulator and brushes and rebuild it yourself.
according to the 98 book, the voltage should be 13.2-14.8 V while running at 2000RPM
hope this helps.
