check charging system keeps coming
on I have changed battery and
alternator all wires from alternator to
battery look good. It does not stay on
there it comes and goes off. Some
times shorter than other times and

Start by making sure belt isn't slipping. Is it old? Check for loose/frayed wires. Check ground strap where battery cable is grounbded
