HI, I've got a 2007 FL 2 HSE which has just developed a problem and would like to know if anybody else has had it and if its got a known fix.
The Battery warning light is coming on and staying on. I have tested the voltage at the battery and with the engine running it is reaching approx 14v, so the alternator is good. I replaced the battery thinking that was the problem, even though I had no problem starting. It is still the same. Also I have noticed when the warning light is on ( as sometimes it doesn't come on, but at present it seems to be on perminant ) the heated seats don't work also the front screen heater/demister is not working. On the occasions the light has gone out then these work fine. Also when hot and the light is on the engine on idle is sometimes "hunting". I have bought a Workshop service and repair disk from ebay, but its not as good as the old Rave disc you got for the FL 1. It suggests it could be a cableing problem.
Trouble is to get at any of the cables it looks like a major strip down!!
Anybody got any ideas before I have to take it to the dealer and get charged hundreds and hundreds of pounds, I am also supposed to be going caravaning in two weeks, don't know if I sould use it as it does seem to drive OK just worried I might be doing some harm to it.
Any ideas at all would be grately received.
