The red battery light indicates that the battery is not rceiving sufficient charge. Look for a loose belt or loose/dirty battery cable connection, or have the alternator and/or battery checked.

Why 92 Ford Festiva won't start but can jump it and it will start no problem as I have already replaced the battery and the alternator and battery light remains on after car is jump started?
It sounds like you have a break in the wire which connects your alternator to your battery, get it checked out.

Why does check engine light come on and battery gauge go down in 1993 town and country minivan but problem goes away after a jump start?
The battery is basicly used just to start your vehicle, the alternator is what generates your power once the vehicle is running. Which indicates you need a new battery, not an alternator. That is why you problem goes away after a jump start(boost). If it was the alternator the problem would not go away and your vehicle would have no lights and stall with no start. Either your battery is bad or the alternator is not charging.
The engine light on your 1997 ford f150 is on Everything seems to be running fine on the truck and you can not figure out why the light is on?
disconnect the battery for a few minutes, reconnect and start it. if there is no problem, the light will stay off
If you have to jump your car to start it but your battery is good what is wrong?
1. Make sure your battery posts and connectors are clean. Free of acid & oxidation. If that doesn't work then.....- 2. Check for a draw on the battery ( something staying on like a trunk light). A good test is to buy a test light. Then disconnect your negative on the battery and put the test light in series. If the light comes on go to the fuse box and start pulling fuses until the light goes out. Then you know where the problem is. Johnny
How do you diagnose the problem if an 85 topaz' battery is failing?
Take off the negative battery cable and hook a test light in between the cable and the battery post. If you have a drain, the light will be on. Start pulling fuses until the light goes off and when it does go off, that is the thing that is draining the battery. If no fuses affect it, take the altermator wires off. If the light goes off then, the alt is bad,.
What does it mean when your won't start or turn over?
I means you have a battery problem or a starter problem or dirty/loose battery cable connections. If the battery is operating the starter and the starter is turning the engine over but the engine won't start and run, you may have a spark problem or a fuel problem.
What could cause the battery light to come on when driving and make a truck shut down and not start if it is not the battery?
Very likely an alternator problem; if the alt is not working soon the battery would be drained and the truck would shut off.
