Why does the battery light come on while driving?
1 Answers
There are two main reasons why the battery light comes on while driving: 1. Battery failure, such as depleted power or battery malfunction. The solution is to use a multimeter to test the battery voltage. If the voltage is low, recharge it to restore power. If the battery is faulty, replace it. 2. Loose or oxidized battery terminals causing poor contact can also trigger the battery light. The solution is to clean and tighten the battery connections. A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. The commonly referred to car battery is a lead-acid battery, which is mainly made of lead and its oxides, with sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte.
