“Battery light comes on, once that occurs the radio goes pitch black and we lose total control over the radio and HVAC controls. The dash gauges shut off including turn signal blinkers and clicking sound. And whether the a.c. Is on or not the heater defrost comes on full blast and I can't get it to turn off. Until the rear defrost and battery light is off. But it will immediately do it again. This problem occurs whether the car is in park, in drive but idling, while driving down the road and when turning left.”
