Cadillac Repair: generator light, forensic evidence consultant expert, last diven with properly cut programmed key


Question
When the car engine gets hot from a long drive and I stop at a stop light the light goes dim and when I step on the gas the generator light goes more bright. This has already burned out the module under the distributor cap. I put a new module in and when the engine is cold the light does not come on. Could the coil be no good? This is an electrical problem. Can you help?
Thanks
Alex

Answer
Hello,

I can't help you at all unless you give me the year, make, model year, engine size etc.
Just an example to this is, generators have not been in a GM car since 1962 when they went to alternators in 1963.
Since many questions come from all over the world, I deal with vehicles as old as the 50s and as new as 2012.
