Recently, I noticed that my voltage gauge was reading higher than normal. I went to the parts store and tested the battery and alternator. The battery was about 6 1/2 years old and showed low voltage so I replaced it. The alternator passed. I checked the cables, fuses connections. Everything seems OK.
Now here is the situation when I start the car and drive it, the gauge reads normal, but after driving it a down the freeway for about 20 minutes the gauge will start to push up towards the "L" in the "Normal." Is there a way to check the voltage while the vehicle is driving or should I be concerned about this?
