My ED currently started to Flash On then occassionally ff then on.. so on... now it is coming on at start up and stays on? What could it be? Terminals seem fine, could the battery be on its way out or? :confused:

could also be your alternator if you can check what voltage its giving out with the motor running

yeah or you could drive it in to a battery shop to get a quote on a new battery and if they are worth their salt they will make sure it is the battery by cheaking the alternator and if they dont you can try to get them to by saying how can i be sure its the battery thoe

if you dont want to try the above methed you should be able to throw any workshop a bit of pocket change to check it

battery or alternator going/gone. OR a ground connection to the alternator or battery is loose/corroded

Get it checked by a professional before you end up stuck stalled somewhere
