YRV warning light

Forum: 

Help... My YRV has a warning light on. It's on the rev counter and I don't know what it means. Does anyone have any ideas. It is sort of shaped like a battery but I don't think that is the problem. No manual to help.. Cray 2Cray 2

YRV warning light

Do you mean the oblong with a - and + on it, situated at about 25 past on the rev counter.
If so, yes it is the battery warning light.
This can indicate looseness of the alternator belt - most likely, or fault with the alternator not working correctly.
May just require tightening or best replaced if you have been driving it for a while like this.
The slipping will have polished the belt.
Not sure if this light would come on if the battery was faulty.
Hope this helps.
Dave.
