    Yea - cleaned the terminals last night and reattached. Everything was fine for a short drive around the block - went home. Today on the way to work dead steady at 14.4v --- on the way home, 12.6v.......

    Gonna get the system tested and probably end up replacing alternator

    Disconnect the battery after you start the car and see if it keeps running. If it turns off, your alternator is the issue.
