Battery light stays on
I have a 2007 Yaris with 88,000 miles. For the past two months my battery light in dash stays on if I let the car sit for a day or two. After driving it for 2 or 3 days, the light goes out again and stays out unless I let it sit again for a day or two. Anyone else dealing with this? Possible causes?
Thanks |

There is a TSB that could be relevant to what you are experiencing.
I have same sort of issue periodically. Usually happens to me when there is an extreme amount of moisture in the air. Goes away after the atmosphere has dried out. http://www.etimago.com/yaris/TSB/T-E...t%20ON%20).pdf

for some reason his link is blocked at work
is this with the check engine light that comes on? Mine comes on right before it rains or gets a lot of moisture in the air, then goes away a little bit later. I didnt know there was at TSB for it |

Not the check engine light. He would be referring to the red battery symbol. The TSB deals with an issue of corrosion in the voltage regulator on the alternator.
