What are the 2 other lights??

I can almost guarantee you your alternator's failing - it's not a tranny issue.

These trucks are voltage happy and will do everything short of spitting parts out literally, to make you aware of the fact that they are NOT happy without their jolt requirements. Seriously!

What I highly recommend is inquiring upon a Bosch, Napa, or OEM Isuzu Alternator - you're most likely going to spend upwards of $190-230 for a good alternator.

Do not waste your time with any old reman alternator or you will be replacing it within 3-4 months time, if it even makes it 2 blocks I'd be surprized.

Many Isuzu owners have been falsely told that their tranny's are shot, only to spend $1-2k and wind up in the same boat. So, trust me when I say, try a new alternator first, clean up all voltage contact points while you're doing that too.
