Need Help With an Electrical Problem
Hi, I'm hoping somebody here can give me some advice or direction with a strange issue my 2008 LR2 is having.
Starts normally.
After about 2 minutes the battery light comes on. (No codes found when scanned.)
When I press the accelerator, several dash lights come on (ABS, brake, airbag, etc) and I get the message that the HDC is not available.
Then the center navigation display goes out and I can only idle.
This happened first about two months ago. I replaced the battery and everything was fine for a few weeks. I even had a technician where I work test the alternator and he said it was working normally.
Then, the battery light started to show up intermittently. Had everything tested, nothing found. The tech suspected a bad connection somewhere was triggering the battery light. Car still drove normally.
Now the major issue has returned.
Starts...battery light...give it gas and watch the dash light up. Scanned the codes and got the P0562 "System Voltage Low" message.
Any ideas? Probably the alternator? Or something more minor like a brake sensor or some such?
I'd really appreciate whatever opinions you guys can give me.
EDIT: I'm also getting a "Low Coolant" message, though the coolant doesn't really look low. Probably not related.
