After driving for awhile battery light will turn off. Car has new battery, and alternator replaced about 9 months ago. Voltmeter shows about 13.8 almost 14. Car starts up right away as it should with new battery. No visible signs to indicate problems. Belt seems to have good tension. I'm not to familiar with checking fuses or system other than visual checks. Local AutoZone's alternator check said it appeared to be fine. Thanks in advance.

This is a follow up to my Question on the Battery light on my car. After an in depth alternator check, it was found to be going bad. Also, a light squeaking/squealing sound alerted the Tech as to the alternator having internal problems. 5 hours later got the replacement on and seems to be fine.
