LOW BATTERY WHILST DRIVING

Postby Gilding » Sun Mar 23, 2014 8:43 am

Recently I have been getting the low battery and stop warning whilst driving. I can drive for 10 minutes or idle for ten minutes and it will pop up no matter what. I can have heaters, lights, radio all on and it will still happen at the same time. I have had a replacement alternator fitted, problem not solved. I have put a new battery in the key, problem not solved, finally I've had a brand new battery fitted, problem not solved. Anyone have any ideas what it could be? The only thing I have noticed is the windows don't work properly, they all go down an inch then stop! Help please.

Did you put the battery every time on a charger?

Can you identify an event after which the windows stopped working correctly?

The windows need to be initialised after any power loss; it's in the manual. Close them and keep the switch up for a few seconds. That's it.
