Default Battery light on. Please help

Hi there I have been reading up on this site on reasons why my battery light is on. I have a brand new alternator installed along with new + battery cables and I cleaned up the ground cable around the terminal and also have replaced the battery. I have seen the alternator charge between 14.5 and 15 volts a couple of times but the rest of the time its between 12.90 and 13.15 volts. The battery light goes off once in a while. Please help getting frustrated.

Welcome to the forum 2002JagXtype,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.


I've copied your question to X-Type forum for advice from members with the same model. Here's the direct link to it:

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x-type-x400-14/battery-light-please-help-202056/

I recall the battery leads/terminals are a known issue for breaking up at the ground terminal connections. They will know more.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x-type-x400-14/ to the main X-Type forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Even though yuor forum username should make it obvious, please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the Canada Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/canada-73/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
