toyota camery electrical problem

[Cai Houston]

the problem vehicle is a 1990 toyota camery. this problem occured
after lightly(meaning i tried to stay away from the distributor)
hosing down the engine and car wash. at idle the indicator lights are
normal, but when rpm's rise i get three indicator lights appear and
get brighter as rpms increase. the 3 indicators are charging, brake
and lights. at idle the batt. voltage is about 13.4 and at higher revs
it increases to about 14.5.

Spray your connectors with WD40. The charge voltage is normal.

Hmm hard to know where to spray? Maybe if you just open the hood on a
sunny day and let the whole thing dry out....
