your Alternator
Wires between Alternator and Battery, and between Alternator plug connector and fuse box etc.
check your battery connections
If its totally dead (no radio, no starter) I would first look at your alternator/battery. This happened to my 2003 Trailblazer, and we had to replace the serpentine belt and the alternator. Battery light came on while driving and within ten minutes, the car was dead.
it is the light telling you that your brakes are not performing the best they can. take the car to a service shop and get your brakes done.
unplug the negative wire from the battery for a few minutes. if this doesnt work it has to be cleard with a scaner(shop)!
How do I reset the differential light on my 2006 Nissan Titan truck? Light came on while driving, and I cannot find out how to reset light.
Battery light usually means alternator not charging. Most common solutions would be be a bad alternator, bad connection, or loose alternator belt. If the battery and alt test ok than check the connections to the alternator and battery.
Check your alternator, Mine did the exact thing. The Battery light and the !!BRAKE!! Light came on and couldn'y figure it out for the hell of me, did volt tests while running and only had 12.5 volts on the battery. I changed the alternator ($179.99) and got back to the normal 14 or so volts while running and lights shut off. no idea why the brake light was on at all.
Reasonable chance of an alternater and/or battery.
once a car starts the bttery is not more necessary to run the car . the generator takes over. in this case i think the regulator failed and the battry since is connected died also.
