Was going to pick the Mrs up the other night and my battery light flickered and then came on. I pulled over turned everything off and opened the bonnet, and tightened up the battery terminals. I then started the car up with nothing on and after a couple of minutes the light went out. I thought nothing of it and then it happened again last night so i did the same only this time i completely unscrewed the terminal's and screwed them back on. I noticed there was some crusty build up around the terminal's but again, after messing with the terminals and leaving the car ticking over for a few minutes, the light went out. This would suggest that the terminals just need a good clean or maybe a new set?! Just thought id check if anyone has had this and it turned out to be an alternator fault as thats when it gets pricey! I'll give the terminals a good clean anyway and see what happens, any reccomendations as to what to use to clean them?
Cheers lads,
Ross
