Question
I have a question. I am a mechanic as well but i cant figure
this one out..after i swapped my blown transmission i
noticed that when i was driving all the check engine and
dash lights would come on and off...non-stop..and now there
on all the time..ive checked everything and i mean
everything connections.alternator wires fuses relays u name
it...do you have any idea what this could mean..my
alternator is good but..has a low voltage could that play a
factor?

Answer
Norman,

Check for pinched wires between the bell housing and engine block.  Don't ask me about how I know about this one...  Also, if the alternator is not putting out 14.2 volts at 1000-1200 RPMs replace it.  But, check the for pinched wires first.
