Ok heres the problem. Girlfriend started car and started down the road. Battery light came on. She brought it back to me and I found the teminals were loose. I cleaned them and retightened them. Again she left down the road no problem. Made a stop at a store. Got back in started car and the Batt light came back on. She drove it home. I didnt notice any loose wires coming from alternator to battery and grounds were good. My only other suspicion is the PCM being that it also holds the voltage regulator. But now it was drove to work and everything was a-ok. Any suggestions? When light is out it is 14volts light on its 12.6 "battery voltage"

According to this site:

Check for codes, according to above site you should have a code for faulty regulator. Post back code. Autozone or other parts stores will test for free.

Hope this helps
