    There is a small solid state regulator ,Delco, located high above your batteries, which regulates the chasis charging voltages . I had to replace mine when my dash board voltages were not reading correctly. It is a Prevost Part.

    The batteries appear to be charging normally,in fact, the charging voltage was turned down because it was slightly high. As Brian said could just be alternator might be getting defective,had it at Prevost and they could not determine,told me to replace Vanner.

    Granvil, In the For What its worth catagory, this happened to me several years ago and after chasing my tail for several weeks, changed chassis batteries and the red light stopped coming on. The batteries checked ok, but I'll guess one of them had an issue that was messing up the balance circuit.

    Good luck!

    Thanks Mike, the batteries did load check ok, but you never know. I am going to try removing the wires off the Vanner one at a time to see if maybe I can isolate it that way. The weird thing is that it takes about 5-10 minutes before it comes on and then it begins by flickering and finally it stays on bright red. When I shut down and restart it may not come back on until I drive it again for the same 5-10 mins. So, I'm thinking if it's a bad battery it would be consistent,it has to be something that heats up as I drive.
