Dash lights stay on at idle 200 1982

posted by  someone claiming to be Bob Wheelock on  Mon Jun 25 15:58 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I just bought a low milage 1982 242 and have batt/alt,brake failure, and bulb failure light staying lit a little and dim to almost nothing when revving at around 1300 rpm. checked alt output--reading 9-10 volts. Changed external voltage regulator as brushes were well below.250. After changing and tightening alt belt--still have low output. Dont have a problem buying new alt ,but, was wondering if the fact the other lights flicker also if its not something else like a poor ground to elec. system. The other lights coming on are not warranted as all bulbs are working and brake system is in excellent shape. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks
