Default STUPID ALTERNATOR!!!

QUESTION, just did the timing belt on a 2.5L and changed the alternator and battery b/c the battery light was on..........is there any voltage regulator on the avenger of fuses or anything I might be missing? B/c the light is still on- the alternator is charging...... WTF
If any has any ideas please post them,

Default RE: STUPID ALTERNATOR!!!

So after bench testing two alternator and getting one to that works........im still charging at 11.4 volts.......which tells me that the pcm is to blame sinch I learned at the parts store that this cars voltage is regulated by the ...pcm ....plus I have an "srs" light on which Im assuming the pcm is junk-- car still runs though!

DOES ANYONE HAVE AN EXTRA PCM LAYING AROUND THAT WILL FIT A 97 ES WITH A 2.5L AUTO...THAT THEY DONT NEED OF COURSE?

Being new to this car is having its quirks, but I got it for free so...I cant complain....I do know that this pcm came from a junkyard car though.......the original has some pins broken in it.......

NO REALLY ...IF YOU HAVE AN EXTRA PLEASE EMAIL ME OR POST IT...A WORKING PCM OF COURSE...THANKS GUYS
