Celica seems to be sucking to much electricity or not getting enough. Example Turn On Head Lights Car Revs low a bit. Push up/down windows car revs down a bit. Same thing with the braking. Braking and car revs down a bit, at idle of course.
I assume "maybe" Alternator is giving out? Or Battery? Any ideas to what it would be or might it be one of those? Anything special to look 4? Thanks |

if you can, the first thing to check is the battery, see what it's putting out for volts. Make sure both terminals are secure and not corroded, then check the voltage of the alternator. Then put the lights on, radio up, ect..and check them again. It should dip a bit when that stuff is running but not much. My guess is the battery...you guys have been having some weird weather in Texas lately, when was it last replaced ?

I got my orginal battery the toyota true in it lol. Same with the alternator. Probably should be a good time to replace both. Ill check the voltage on them and post the results if unsual.
