I started the car, and found 3 annunciators that stayed lit. BRAKE, CHARGE, and LIGHTS.
I can't get an appointment with the mechanic until Tuesday, so I took the car to NAPA, where it refused to start. They changed the battery and it now starts fine, but these 3 lights are still on. The fluid level in the brakes is normal, and all the rear end lights appear to be working.
I'm concerned about the CHARGE light, I don't want to destroy my new battery by driving with a bad voltage regulator or alternator.
Does anyone have any ideas for troubleshooting this at home? Also, my manual doesn't mention it, but does the LIGHTS light come on when annunciator bulbs burn out? Could this just be a case of these lights warning me that they are burning out? I ask this because if I set the parking brake, the BRAKE light comes on brighter than if the brake is not set.
Thanks
