My engine running, A/C is in full swing and the CD music also was blasting and all of the sudden, I saw a Charge Fault and it disappeared. Please tell me what is going on.All advise are appreciated.Thank you.

Is the alternator original on the car? How many miles on the car/alternator? Intermittent fault from alternator. It'll come back soon or later. Do your research to rebuild/buy an alternator.

Why don't you check the voltage across the positive terminal under the hood [and chassis/ground terminal] while the engine is running. Does the voltage stay steady or fluctuate?
