Hi, recently have car problem where the headlightbulbs keep blowing up, and the ABS light keep flashing (the ABS light stay on when driving, when im in neutral and at idle rpm, the light go off, but if i give a little gas, the light will go on until the rev go back down to idle), anyone had this problem before and know how to fix it? This happened after ther alternator got wet...........

as for the headlight, i had blown 3 already
thanks!

Usually when the ABS light is on and experiencing electrical problems means your alternator isn't charging or shorted out, and it may take your battery with it if you leave it too long. Get the alt tested somewhere...Parts Source do it for free.

Yup, it sounds like a bad alternator. See to it quickly, as it may also take out your engine and ABS computers, etc., in addition to your battery, as Maddog said.

Maddog: do Part Source do check my alternator if i take it out myself or can i bring the car in and check out for free?
