Sounds like a bad ground or bad voltage regulator. Several posters have told
of that little black box under the hood that clicks when it shuts off the Alt.
light, that stayed on after shutting off the engine. Take the box apart and
clean all the contacts, possible adjust the tension on them, too. Make sure
all battery grounds are clean and good. Both ends on neg. batt. cable and the
engine to frame ground strap if you have one.
Since there is such a wide variety of symptoms, I don't think it is a major
component. It sounds like a very elusive loose wire. Hope this helps.
