When I started car this morning, 3 lights came on and stayed on--A/T Temp, Brake, Battery. I checked brake fluid-good. I checked Alternator belt-good. I checked transmission temperature-hot. What is wrong? Is there a significance for the combination of lights being on at the same time? How do I fix this or what do I need to fix?

Do you have a multi meter to do some testing?If so at idle what is the voltage at the alternator?With the battery light on you could have a bad alternator.

Thank you. I do not have a multi meter. I can go to Autozone, right? They can test alternators, right?
