Battery light and chime
Changed out bad altenator and installed new battery. All connections appear good. Getting intermittent battery light and chime. Charging system scans good. Any ideas? Thanks

Check the connection on the underhood fuse block, as well as on the starter

To check the fuse block it will have to come apart to check the pins and sockets.
If that is what RJ is implying.
Or just check the wires attached to the fuse box on the outside of it.

The cable goes from the battery, to the side of the fuse block, then to the starter, then to the generator.
