Battery light

Post by stevengude » Thu Jan 03, 2019 7:17 pm

Evening all
My battery light on my 2003 e85 3.0i keeps coming on and staying on once in around 10/15 times of starting the car. It will stay on until I run for around 15min, at which point if it turn car off and on again it goes off.

Any suggestions on a fix? Is it likely to be battery?

Light suggests battery is not charging - could be alternator
If battery is the original then it may be a good idea to replace it
