My pickup has developed a problem in the charging circuit. Likely one of the diodes is bad so it never get up to charging potential plus as the battery discharges, the computer tells the alternator to shut down. I am going to have to remove the alternator and take the back cover off to test the diodes. One is obviously bad and so I don't get all 3 legs of the alternator only 2 so it doesn't produce enough power to keep the battery charged.
