Hi, my nissan sentra 2000, 116,000 miles is driving me crazy. Whenever i drive it for more then 30 min, my brake and battery light comes on. I recently had my car tuned and they told me that my battery and brakes are fine. I have had problems with my tail lights in the past not turning on, and my interior light aroung my gear does not work. I am thinking its electrical, but would like to make sure.


Thank you

Hummm I think you need to have the alternator checked. If it isn't working right it will cause the battery light to come on. Let me know

That problem could simple. If your car is a manual, there is a screw underneath your e-brake. If the metal from the brake is coming in contact with the screw, the light will come on. If not, it probably just means you need to get the breaks changed. On certain vehicles, the brake light will come on when they need changed. These possibilities are more probable then an electrical malfunction.
