Problems after alternator install

Recently I installed a new alternator. Right after the install I noticed that the 4wd light, battery light, and brake light come on while at the same time the fan for the ac/heat kicks off. This happens during acceleration and shifting. Usually letting off the gas makes the lights go off and the fan work again. Anybody have a similar experience or an idea how i can fix this prblem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes it was a bosch. I wasn't aware that an alternator could cause these problems. It should still be under warranty. Before i go pointing the finger could anything else cause this?

Re: Problems after alternator install

Funny thing, BOSCH is the only alternator that stopped my problems. Went through 2 alternators from checker, couldn't afford the OEM alternator.

But yes, these are the exact symptoms I had when my remanufactored alt's weren't putting out enought amp.
