I wonder whether it is a bad voltage regulator. Put a voltmeter on the battery terminals and rev the engine up. Shouldn't get more than a hair over 14 V.

Long shot, but worth a try.

Thanks Anker, I pretty sure I did that last fall, but will recheck.
The Durametric should be here in a couple of days.
My plan is to read codes and see what is in there. Clear them and run the car for a bit and recheck.

I will report any findings....

OK, ran the Durametric and found these codes:

Engine Module
P0150= O2 sensor, pre cat. cylinder (4-6)

Airbag
Supply low
Airbag warning light

Alarm l32
21=Control Unit Failure
60=Status Not present
33=W lead DME Mobilizer
Status= Not Present

These Alarms stated info only- No Repair Needed

Xenon (car does have Litronics???)
Engine Path Left
Engine Path Right
Axle Position Sensor

What is Alarm l32?

Any other info on these would be welcome

Thanks!

All codes were cleared and the long drive had no dramas, nice high 60's day and good to be out!

Alarm codes as far I can find out;
21 = No engine start possible--------Makes sense, I didn't have the clutch in!
33 = No passenger compartment monitoring---Passenger monitoring sensor bad.
60 = Still don't know what status isn't present.

The big thing is the airbag and O2 errors did not come back.
I guess I did fix it
