I have a 2000 chevy S-10. The other day the battery indicator light came on, and i noticed the voltmeter dropping slowly. By the time I made it home, it had dropped to red, all of the gauges went dark, and I had basically no power in the cabin. The truck still ran though. Once I shut it off, of course, it would not restart. After awhile of waiting, it restarted, but the voltage drop was happening again. It seems to me this is an alternator problem. Do you folks agree? If I can start it, is it safe to drive to the nearest service center?
