I have a Ford Explorer. My battery is 3 years old and I put a new altenator in last year. Today after picking up dinner I was driving and came to a stop sign, my battery gage began to decline to the L (low) end. My truck did not stall. While I am driving the gage is at its regular spot. However when I stop, not putting it into park, and my Air conditioner is running the battery goes down to very low. It never used to do this. Could it be that my altenator is going? Is my gage not working properly. I know that the AC takes up more power, but it has never done this in the 5 yrs of owning it. I am suppose to drive with my vehicle on vacation, but now need to figure out what is the matter with it. A friend has a valometer and is going to hook it up and see what the alternator and battery is putting out. Please HELP!!!
