Can the Car Be Driven When the Positive and Negative Terminal Lights Are On?

[MilaAnn]

The car cannot be driven when the positive and negative terminal lights are on, as this indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's charging system. The possible causes of this issue are as follows: 1. Generator Belt: If the generator belt is aged, carbonized on the surface, or has excessive slack, it can cause the belt to slip and produce abnormal noises, leading to generator slippage and the illumination of the warning light. 2. Damaged Generator Bearing: A damaged generator bearing can result in idling, and the rotor and stator of the generator may come into contact and friction, causing overheating. In this case, the bearing needs to be replaced. 3. Battery Connection Wires: If the battery connection wires are loose or corroded, they should be re-secured if the issue is poor contact or looseness. However, if the wires are corroded, they need to be replaced.
