    My car said charging system failure this morning on my way to work.
    I switched the DIC over to the battery gauge and it went from 14 down slowly(not steadily) to 12.97 after 20 minutes in rush hour traffic.
    It didnt do any of the other crazy stuff that my older gtp would do when its battery went bad.
    I want to fix it myself, does anybody have any similar stories or advice?
    I think I just need to swap out the alternator but I am not sure if thats the issue.

    It certainly sounds like the issue. Id test the output of the alternator first but Id say thats the issue
