Re: Pontiac Grand Am Charging Indicator Light

depends why the light is coming on. 99% of the time, that light only comes on when there is an internal failure in the alternator and it stops charging.

It is possible to have a wiring issue outside of the alternator, but its not common

The fact that the light is intermittant as you describe is odd. I would at least check the voltage with a voltmeter when the light is on.
