What does a check battery light that comes on intermittently mean?
I have a 2001 Ford Focus manual shift, with a rebuilt engine in it. The engine was replaced about 2 months ago. The check battery light is now coming on intermittently, sometimes when stopped at a light in idle, sometimes when driving along the road. Any suggestions as to what might be the problem?
1. Check serpentine belt which "runs" all the ancillaries to the engine (used to be called the fan belt!!).
2. Take car to nearest tyre fitting/battery centre and ask them to check alternator output and battery status - free service
