When the power steering pump goes does the battery light come on on a mini cooper s?
Sounds like youve broken a belt. Battery light comes on when the battery is no being charged. Power steering stops when the power steering pump is not being driven. I dont know about on a mini cooper s but a lot of cars have 1 belt driving both of these things. Chekc under your bonnet, you will likely have some broken bits of belt hanging around and a few bare wheel/pulley type things. Your car will continue to run (minus power steering) untill the battery dies (couple hundred K's max, likely much less) so head straight to a garage. Its a routine fix that shouldnt take more than an hour or so.

The power steering is electric.....a motor runs it.

There was actually a recall for the power steering. It is covered by the dealership and should be fixed at no cost to you. The recall said the power steering assist will go out and the power steering light will go on.

If there is power lost, lights that dim and a battery light that comes on there is most likely a connection that is loose somewhere. It would be best to check the alternator or battery cables.
