You saying dome light cover melted? Maybe because somebody left the dome lamp on?

It is easy to check the charging voltage. What are the other 13 problems?

3,450

Biggest problem: wrong mechanic, lol. That being said, to find out if its overcharging, take a multimeter and measure voltage at battery. Key off should be about 12.5 volts. Engine running about 15 volts
