Battery light + Check engine light - MY99 Impreza
Discussion
Hi there.
The last few weeks the battery light has been remaining on for the first few minutes of every journey before going off. The night before last, it remained on for the entire journey. Last night, it's stuck on, and the check engine light has come on as well.
Never had any power issues so far with lights etc, never failed to start, but I don't really want to take it anywhere now.
Multimeter readings across battery:
Engine off, ignition off: 12.23v
Engine running: 11.61v, going down to 11.53v over the minute I'd held the prongs on for.
Engine running, lights on: 11.12v
Hope the alternator hasn't snuffed it, but I get a feeling it has.
The car is an Impreza turbo 2000, 1999. Thanks for any replies.
