It's the first time in a long time I've seen the charge voltage go to 14.4v and stay there for longer than a few seconds..... I'll check the auto-headlights tomorrow by just throwing a magazine or something over the sensor....

Yeah, but at first it didn't look like it did anything.....but as I had already switched it, I just left it in....Next time I started it it I noticed that the CEL didn't come on!! So I left the newer one in.

I've been told - I don't know HOW many times - by the people at LOD that a bad battery or alternator will reek havoc with this car!
