This happened whiles I was driving this morning. What does this mean? Its not on all the way, just faded!
Normally the lights are this intensity when you have the key in position 1 (Car is on, but Engine is not started).
BACKSTORY:
So Since Memorial Day weekend, I've been ontop of all my maintenance;
New Belts, O2 Sensor, Fuel Filter, Spark Plug, BMW Fuel Injection Cleaner and as soon as my intake valves and gaskets and ICV hoses come in at the dealership I will change and clean out the ICV and Throttle Body. As a result, my car has driving perfectly with the exception of the rough idling at the stoplights which should end when I do the ICV and Throttle Maintenance.
So today I take the 318i on 30 mile drive into the hilly roads of upstate NY and my Check Battery light is on, but very faded almost ghostly looking...(see 1st pic above).
I played around with the dash light and dimmer switches to see if I was seeing things but there it was; a dim check battery light on.
What can this be? My Battery is pretty new as of 2 years ago (even though it died and remained dead for a few months because I had my 318i in storage when I was abroad for a few months working in Canada. However, I revived it with the basic jump start and have beend driving fine on it since March.
I have no clue what that light being on and at that idim ntensity means?
New Battery needed, Power surge somewhere, New alternator needed?
