Default 95 c4 6sp....wtf

All summer my cel came on within 10min almost to the second of driving, I'd reach certain traffic lights and I could literally look down and wait for it to turn on while sitting at the light. I thought it was coolant temp related. Now it's a little cooler out and the light no longer comes on despite coolant temps being higher. I had pulled the codes but I forgot the numbers, I will repull them tonight. Any ideas? I was thinking maybe an iac was sticking causing the computer not to like the number it sees in hot weather. Both cooling fans turn on high when it comes on which is kind of a good thing on hot summer days lol.

​​​​​​​I dunno, thoughts?

Post the code(s). No sense in guessing.

Everything I've read about that series of codes with vettes seems to indicate low voltage.

I did some research on those yesterday for you, and yes, low voltage.

Sitting at a light means alternator spinning slower, combined with heat = higher strain on a failing charging system.
