over charging battery
This is for a 99 xj sport. Alt is testing back fine. What else can cause this or is it just the alt or regulator in the alt. Please let me know.thanks

There is a temp sensor in the bottom of the battery tray. If it is giving bad information to the ECM it can cause an over charging condition.

If it is an Autozone Duralast (Neverlast) or Walmart Everstart (Neverstart) battery, it very well could have a bad cell in it already.
You need to take it where ever you bought it and have a load test done on it.
