Charging System Indicator
This indicator should come on when
the ignition is ON (II), and go out
after the engine starts. If it comes on
brightly when the engine is running,
it indicates that the charging system
has stopped charging the battery.
Immediately turn off all electrical
accessories: radio, heater, A/C, rear
defogger, cruise control, etc. Try not
to use other electrically-operated
controls such as the power windows.
Keep the engine running and take
extra care not to stall it. Starting the
engine will discharge the battery
rapidly.
By eliminating as much of the
electrical load as possible, you can
drive several miles before the
battery is too discharged to keep the
engine running. Drive to a service
station or garage where you can get
technical assistance.
