OK Audiphiles I need your collective genius on this one. Situation-stop and go traffic, 2/29/96, outside temp 29F Heater on-fan set on low, radio on, parking lights on. Digital dash voltmeter reading 13.2. While stopped the temperature went high enough to kick on the radiator cooling fan, it is supposed to do that, BUT my dash lights momentarily dimmed and my radio went dead for a second. This happened a number of times. I'm pretty sure that when the fan came on and the car was moving, the above did not occur, tough to tell. Also when the cooling fan kicked on the volts reading went to 12.1 which I feel is one hell of a draw. If it means anything, both the battery and alternator are less than 5 months old. Any ideas, solutions and/or strategies would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
