HELP.....EMERGENCY!!!
Just taken our e89 for its MOT, passed fine but on driving away from the garage or as we tried to leave the garage ALL the dash warning lights are on and the electric handbrake won't operate. I'm thinking alternater not charging enough or a battery issue? Any idea folk's! Thanks Tom

have you checked the battery terminals are properly tightened down?
Then get a code reader on it.

Thanks for your response, all seems fine , I think the garage left the ignition on during the mot without the engine running and caused low voltage, fingers crossed its be perfect since.

I will have a look, the e89 is 2013, so I'm guessing a battery charge could be due? Any ideas on when they should be replaced?
