No it cannot unless alternator is not charging the only power a diesel requires is for fuel cutoff solenoid
the ground to the battery i had the same problem on my truck
The battery regulator is faulty or the battery has internal damage. Continuing to use a faulty regulator can quickly cause battery damage.
If the battery, drive belt and wiring are okay then I would suspect the alternator is faulty. Your local auto parts store can test the charging system for you at no cost.
It can, though it is unlikely -- the alternator and the voltage regulator would both have to be faulty. A faulty alternator will not charge a battery, though, so it may seem normal until the charge put into the battery at the store runs out.
A bad battery or faulty battery connection.
a battery for diesel will have more power.a petrol battery for say a ford van would have Cold Cranking Amps: 420Capacity: 45 AhThe battery for the same van but diesel would be Cold Cranking Amps: 450Capacity: 55 Ahor about 30% more power
Failing battery. Loose terminal connection at the battery. Loose connection at the other ends of the battery cables. Faulty alternator. Blown engine compartment fuses. Faulty or damaged wiring.
A Ford Mondeo diesel car may stop running while driving due to several potential issues, such as fuel supply problems, like a clogged fuel filter or a malfunctioning fuel pump. Electrical issues, including a failing battery or alternator, can also lead to engine shutdown. Additionally, overheating due to coolant leaks or a malfunctioning thermostat can cause the engine to stop. Lastly, problems with the engine management system, such as a faulty sensor, can trigger a shutdown for safety reasons.
The battery gauge may drop while driving due to increased power consumption from the vehicle's electrical systems, such as lights, air conditioning, and infotainment systems. Additionally, if the alternator is not charging the battery effectively, it can lead to a decline in battery voltage. Other factors include heavy acceleration or the use of power-hungry accessories, which can temporarily strain the battery. Finally, an aging or faulty battery may struggle to maintain its charge under load, causing the gauge to drop.
faulty ignition switch
It depends if you are using diesel or petrol. Diesel is more expensive so it would cost more.
i would have the light switch checked to see if it is faulty
