What does that mean? I looked in the manual and all it says is to take it to a dealer...Anyone have any more insight than that? It's about time for me to get a tune-up, she's been making a slightly "sick" sound, likes belts need changing or something. Thanks.

 

Sounds like a good idea.

If you're having potential battery issues, it could be a charging or alternator problems. I don't know specifically what the battery light indicates, but that would be my suspicion.

 

In my experience means the brusches in the alt need to be replaced for cars in general.

 

My lights flickered prior to the alternator croaking.........

 

Yep.. the battery light is a system voltage idiot light. You're voltage dropped under 12V while that light was on.
