Charging Light & Sediment Light

Post by Buzziebee18 » Fri Sep 21, 2018 8:46 am

Morning All,
Having had 2 front tyres fitted last night I drove away only to be confronted with 2 x red lights coming on my dashboard (I am a newbie to bongo's) one on the right saying Charge & one on left saying Sediment. I got home in a right panic to then look through my manual to see this could be a variety of issues!! Any advise or help will be gratefully received!! :?

The Charge light is the alternator failure light, either the belt or the alternator is faulty and not charging the battery, the sediment light is simply an artefact of the wiring and in this instance can be ignored. Remember you have a limited number of starts until its sorted!
