All dashboard lights came on then dimmed then the car died.

The first light that came on (less than 24 hours before this incident) was the battery (or voltage? light).

  • Anonymous Mar 07, 2009

    I have done the alternator, the battery, and the control module. They said this was the fix. But No same problem again the next day. Help

2004 suzuki verona dash lights are not dimming anymore

Flickering dashboard lights are a problem, but they usually don't indicate a problem with the dash itself. Rather, it's often caused by a dying car battery or a failing alternator (which charges the battery when your vehicle is running).

2003 HONDA ELEMENT DIES WHILE DRIVING

Sounds like a bad connection somewhere. Maybe the thieves or the repair shop damaged/loosened something. I would start the car and start wiggling/moving wires and connections to try to narrow down where the problem is. Start at the alternator connections, both at the alternator and where the thick wire connects, probably at the power distribution box but it may go straight to the battery; don't recall on that car.

2003 Cavalier. Battery warning light came on

Check for bad connection to the battery. Use a volt meter to check voltage from alternator to the battery, should be 14.5 volts to 15 volts. If you have anything less than that then look for a bad alternator wire from alternator to battery. Also check for a good ground connection to the battery. Do all the testing with everything off inside the car so you will not have a power drain from the system. hope this will help you.

Check belt(s) first then put voltmeter on battery and record voltage while running if you can, even if you have to jump it to get it going. take time to read owners manual & locate any fuses that may be associated with alternator circuits, most likely in power distribution box under hood, and check for one blown. Do you have a 12v test light by chance?

Car died but now starts

Try cleaning the battery cables where they contact the battery. If that doesn't do the trick, most auto parts stores wil ltest your battery for free. Do both first before lookng into the charging system. Alternatively, Place an external battery charger on the battery and charge it up. If that fixes it  then test the charging system.
