Bongo Fury

Hi

I have done a search for my problem but not sure of information I found

My charge light and sediment light are lit faintly on the dash,they have been like this for a couple of days

They can only be seen with lights off ?

Does "The Bong" need to see a Bongo Doctor ?

Any help greatly recieved

This has nothing to do with my cosmetic enhancement at weekend the problem was there prior to surgery !

Dawn,
Have a look here it could be related to Your split charge relay

Dabs

Thats where I would put my money as well!

This is what I love about this forum ...great people who are always willing to help out .

Thanks will do some research

Watch this space

When it happened to the Bong, it was the alternator, only it wasn't feint, it was like a beacon glaring out of the dash!

If the light glows a full red pete, that does indeed indicate that there could be a fault with the alternator, however, if the light is barely lit (often accompanied by the sediment light) then that indicates that the split charging relay is causing the light to glow faintly.

SOME split charge relays tap directly into the alternator, which causes a slight current draw...its this that makes the light(s) glow ever so slightly.

I don't think it causes any harm Dawn, its just the nature of the beast,it may be worth getting a local auto electrician to run a test on the alternator though, just to put your mind at rest.

Thanks BigDaddy that makes me feel much happier

Will take advantage of a free alternater check though ....better to be safe than sorry I think

Indeed, hope it checks out ok
