General Intermittent Battery Warning Light

[MotorWorldChink]

Hi all seems my cinq is having a bad month. Wheel bearing needs replacing. Clutch is gettting worse. Now my battery warning light is ever so lightly lit intermittently. Work at an auto electritians so alternator was first port of call. The charge rate is fine. Seems to have no loose wires or anything like that so we are assuming it is the ignition switch gone faulty. Got a couple of prices from main dealers both of which were totally different lol but one was actually cheaper than Andrew Pages. Only problem is they have to order the switch at Fiat so i can't return the item. With me not being 100% sure if it is the switch thought i would ask you guys if you had had the same problem

Have all the earths been checked? Is the battery holding its charge properly?

Erm, can't think of anything else.

Battery is holding charge. There is no drain on the battery. Charge rate is constant throughout all the rev ranges

Don't like ignoring problems. This light aint been on for a week now. Aint buying the switch till i know for deffo that its the switch. Fiat won't let you send it back and at £50 thats an expensive switch
